MAN VS WILD

It was a last minute decision to hit the lake. With the stench of skunk on me from Saturday’s tourney at the Vine, I needed to try to knock the smell off of me before Christmas (can’t go see the family smelling like skunk lol). So I packed the kids up and headed to S.A.R.L. Got there at 10:15 and lots of people were there. Beautiful day to be fishing.
I set up in Levits corner. I sat there for about an hour with no luck. Time to move. I spotted an open spot on the other side and rushed over there. The guy next to me had one fish (stocker size) and he said the guy to the right of me had one.
Like Troutdog would say “the short of the long of it”or is it “the long of the short of it” finally got bite at 2:30 on chartruese Gulp eggs. I started to jig when the indicater on my other pole shoots up in the air and the drag went ZZZZZZZZZZZZ……ZZZZZZZZZZZ…….
Got the pole, set the hook and worked him til he was tired. This guy put up a good fight. The guy next to me netted this fat boy for me. Official weight at the shop was 3lbs on the dot.
Skunk gone, now I can see the family smelling good.
Merry Christmas everyone!!!
FISH ON!!!
