Well I called Jay yesterday and we went to Milford last night.

First thing out of the gate I backed my boat into the water without any leash or tie down and sent it out 30 yards, didn't have my head in the game. There was another boat putting in at the same time (luckily) and a young guy with them dove in and swam out to it and drug it in. What a guy, a little more work than necessary since they were putting in, but what a guy.

After that and the lake being up several feet I was concerned this might be a disaster trip. Spent an hour looking for shad and found 0. Luckily I got 8 decent shad locally before I left.

We got started fishing about 7 and anchored for close to an hour with only lite taps and no fish.

Then we started to drift, and I started catching them. I had a limit and one over 10#(not sure exact weight forgot my scale in the truck) before sunset. Jay on the other hand, well to put in his terms, "He was pulling a Bennett." We fished for three and half hours before Jay got his first and he ended up with two the whole night. I ended up with eight and two over 10#. Not a gang buster night at all but over all a great trip.

I don't know what it is about fishing, because Jay put us on the fish without a doubt. They just didn't like his bait last night. I relished it because I know it doesn't and won't happen very often.

Thats a good catch for a afternoon of fishing anywhere.

Glad you Put it to Jay and kept him in the back of the boat.But I'm sure someday he will get even with you.

Good job guys!!

I got him a couple of times too Tom, shore and boat(mine), but he always gets his "revenge":laugh:, regardless though, I'd fish with Jay anytime. Right now, I just wish I could fish:crying::weep:
Well, at least I got "the tube" yanked out today, he said "maybe" the stitches next week, Jeralds been baby sitting me the last couple of days, won't let me do:Nop:, but I did talk him into going fishing today, just so I could watch, didn't do much, couple of bites, but it was just nice to go. The crick was running pretty hard, thought we(he'd) catch something, the current was clear down to the boat ramp. Oh well, maybe tomorrow.

 

[n2fishn]

I would fish with Jay anytime also.But i want him to fish in my boat the next time out.

Glad to hear your healing up some Jim.Hope 100% soon....Jerald is s good guy.Nice to have friends like that
when your in need.And i know you would do the same for him.

Get well soon buddy!

Had a great time fishing with Josh. If I could have matched him fish for fish we would have hammered them pretty good. He put the whoopin on me and there was nothing I could do about it except keep netting his fish. You up for some fishing this weekend Bennett? I need my selfesteam back.

Pour Bennett will never get no respect until he catches a fish.

Is the water in the parking lot at Wakefield??

Bryan, I haven't been up there, but judging from the School and Curtis creek ramps, where the water is just at the top of the ramp. I imagine the area by the old ramp at Wakefield is flooded though(?)

There's a possibility there's some flooding, just looked, the lake is at 49.24, conservation is 44.40.

One of these days I'm gonna out do you Jay, and on that great day, all of Catfish1.com will hear of my great triumph!

And no, I can't fish this weekend, my Mom is in town so we are gonna hang out in Kansas city. Of course I'm telling her all kinds of stories about how many monster catfish I catch.:winky:


And for those of you that don't know, I actually DO catch fish, just not when Jay and Jim are around, they're bad luck.

If there ever is a drum or gar tourney around here, you will be the first guy I call Bennett.

 

[n2fishn]

Bennett when did you catch that blue in your new avatar??

I guess that proves you catch fish and some bigin's.....

 

[Grimpuppy]

I believe the correct phrase would be a big one, not some bigin's Tom. That fish looks familiar, wonder who's boat he caught that on? :winky: Bennett has had a good day or two, but it is still fun to raz him a bit.
