northern duct 1/7/13

[dk4885]

after spending all day sat with feelsteelgary at the duct getting my duct lesson i chose today to attack the duct in my area. started off at hwy 145 and started woking my way south. first grate i came to i stopped and 2nd cast fish on small fish back he goes at that point im thinking hell yeah going to b a good day.

so for the next 6 hours and many gates and grates later and 2000 cast later nothing. there was hardly no flo at all, as i pull up to a set of gates further south the flo was moving pretty good and around my 5th cast tap and i swing fish on nice fight pulled some drag yup hes a keeper. a few min later same thing and another keeper.

i can tell you this before my trip with gary and having an understanding into garys world as if thats possible i would have left hours ago but i stuck it out and it paid off in the end.


oh yeah back to the fish
24 1/2" and 5 1/2#
26 1/2" and 6 1/2#

As I’ve told you and what was demonstrated saturday….

sometimes ya gott take those lemons

Squeeze them

AND MAKE LEMONADE

U have done just that……

Yeeee-haw..

It’s never over till it’s OVER and hopefully by then some good fish hit the deck

That’s precisely what I did Saturday and I see U were paying attention : )

Nice job…..


As for: 24 1/2" and 5 1/2#
26 1/2" and 6 1/2#


Laughing my arse off…

When we were at Millerton and I caught that 15 ½ lb feesh….you kept telling me “15” and I kept saying “hey….don’t be shavin’ my ½ lb of…”

Ahhhhh ha ha ha…

24 ½ - 5 1/2lbs

26 ½ - 6 ½ lbs

Damn staright we are gonna count those fractions….especially when you have to pound as hard as we do at the duct….

U are NOW hopelessly ensconced in Gary’s world…. Oh I don’t know whether or not to celebrate for you or to feel sorry for your oblivion..


LMAO~

Congrats on a job well done in very tuff conditions.

Gary




I tell ya what, nobody fishes as hard as him and your dillegence paid off for ya.

U know how we roll……also had ta break in that 2013 license on jan 1st (and did)…..gotta keep on them…..hopefully if the fish gods will it….
HOPEFULLY
More super toads will hit the deck this year……more poundings must follow to make that happen (and not talking about the pumphouse treatment DK got from his lessons either on sat)

LMAO~

Nice to see you getting on them DK.

If the fish aren't biting on the day that you're there you can always keep fishing until tomorrow to avoid the skunk.

Seriously, your perseverance paid off.

[dk4885]
