Bayou Sara (Upper Mobile Delta)
2:30 pm
Largemouth Bass
3 fish (Largest was about 2 1/2 pounds, the other 2 were about 1 pound each)
Sunny and hot as Hades
Stained
Chrome and Blue Rat-L-Trap and Pearl White crankbait

I had caught the 2 smaller bass about 15 minutes before I caught the bigger one. I heard him splash beside a stump that was sticking up out of the water behind me. I turned around and cast just past the stump and he hit the Rat-L-Trap and jumped. When he jumped, he threw the hook and it wound up hooking him about half way between the dorsal fin and the tail. I didn't realize he was foul hooked at the time and thought he was bigger than he actually was. He got wrapped around the stump and I had to turn the boat around to get on the other side of the stump. He got off of the stump and I got him in the boat. All in all, it was a pretty good day on the creek that I was fishing, especially for this time of year.

JULY 24 2004
Pea River
10am-4pm
we caught 23 bass. the largest being a 5.9lb and another at 3.7lbs.
Temp: Was dang near 100
Water temp I really aint sure.
Bait: We used Culprit plastic worms. Colors were Black and we used Pumpkin seed with Chartruse tails.
Comments: Me and my buddy had a blast on this float trip. We hadnt fished together in a while. We kept about 18 of the fish. It was very hot but I would do it again. I think the heat index was like 110. When we got to hot we just jumped off into the water to get cooled off. The float trip took about 6 hours to make. The river was lower in places than we expected but all in all it was a good day. I really enjoyed it.

8/7/04
Warrior River
7am-10am
Water was stained with clear skies.
Couldn't bye a bite the first hour. I finally switched to a chartreuse & white spinner bait with one gold and one silver willow leaf blade. Threw it parrallel with the weeds and pads and caught 5 bass pretty quick. I didn't ever get the big one but had fun anyway. I never caught a fish while throwing into the bank. I could see fish way up in the pads and had one big one blow up on a June bug lizzard I was swimming across them but missed him.

In my yard on my ankle, damn rain seems to never stop around here.

Pics?

Me and Brody Joe and my brother went a fishing today. We caught 10 bass out of a private pond here in Opp. We caught them on spinner baits and plastic worms. Photoshopped pictures to follow at a later date. Just as soon as Joe can make them look bigger than they are.

He can do it if anyone. I'm sure he'll do a fine job.
