SUMMARY & FURTHER DETAILS

====================

Last day for full time life jackets was the best day of the year for me!

Took one of my old Army buddies fishing (his first time) and we had a riot. seems like there was nothing that the Browns would not bite, although the silver minnow with chartreuse back was certainly the hottest for us. We turned right as soon as we hit the last buoys and were into the Browns almost immediately. Had a triple with 2 browns and a smallmouth and with only two guys on the boat it was a hell of a Chinese firedrill. No auto pilot and Otter boats out both sides we were probably a hazard to navigation...Hope nobody recognized us...and sorry if we caused you to react to our Non-expert reaction to that triple. Kept 6 nice eaters all about 4 Lbs. One of the Browns had a fairly fresh Lamprey wound.

Good going. We've done the turkey thing the last two mornings and have taken two Toms and a Jake. I've been running to Mexico and have had good success on the btrowns but think I'll try closer to home this week. Thanks for the post.
