Ran charters Saturday for Phillips Services customers. Show up in the AM to find out it is a family competition where I'm bring one couple and their two children in the AM and another couple and their two children in the PM and the loser has to clean the kitchen in the evening. The pressure is on.
Fishing was extremely slow Saturday morning despite severally low tides which usually pull the fish together. Got on the phone thinking someone had to be on some fish with the low tides to find out I've caught the most fish of the 3 boats I knew out fishing. Never get on much and wind up with 3 reds and 2 bass by far the worst day of the year for me.

Sat afternoon finds the tide even lower. I've seen more water in the winter time around here. Unbelieveable low tides coupled with a South wind from a building storm really limited fishing spots. I was really disgusted about 7:10 pm with one bass when suddenly it was like a switch turned on. From then to dark, 9 reds caught with 6 lost and a couple bass were caught. I was told Friday that it was an afternoon bite, but that is cutting it close. While I was kind of bummed over the catch, the two families were happy as can be. Sorry no pictures.

Sun was just a hang around the house day and clean up. About 6:30 in the afternoon my nephew came over and asked me if I would bring him to shoot his bow? Dumb Question. Duncan, Caroline and myself piled up in the truck and off we went to my mom's house. They had a real good time and I found out I'm pretty much ready for hunting season. First four shots with four different fixed broadheads from 25 yds. That is as good as I can do.

My nephew/Pq's 2nd cuz Duncan.

One of out 20 shots but he is proud.

My daughter Caroline

Her proud moment.

It kinda looks like a SNOOK!

I bet it wasn't boring to them kids!

Nicely done Wade.

BTW-Do you know where Columbia La is? About 30-35 mi south of Monroe. How long would it take me to drive to your place from there?
Fishing is alot like sex: Even when it's bad it's still pretty good!

Good job Bigun, looks like Duncan and Caroline had a blast shooting. You are the best uncle...
Thank you Lord for my family and the waters I get to fish

Nope, sitting on the shelf collecting dust. Why I never took pictures of you shooting your bow? You never could hit the target I guess. You killed my dad's fence a few times though.
