Nobody fishing?

My wife (35 years) usually waits till my hairbrained idea fails and laughs. Then comes commentary. "Did it hurt? Betcha won't do that again? Did you learn something?" And laughs some more. Figure I keep her entertained...

my current situation....

I am quite possibly walking into the very same situation. We had planned to build but decided that wasn’t feasible. Now under contract to buy a house on a village lot a quarter mile from our 9 acre build sight. I still hope to build my shop out there… possibly a hangar for the Cub.

They can be setup weedless, or in a texas rig.

My nephew says they work pretty well in Tennessee where he lives as well.

Local sporting goods stores, including bass pro, don't stock this color, I got them on amazon.

Not sure how many remember but that thing is pretty much a “ mister twister” .

I’ve been out a couple days a week bass fishing. Managing to catch a few each time, some good ones in the mix.

I will say the Garmin Force trolling motor I paid a lot of money for has been giving me issues. On Monday If I had a quick release set up on it you could bet your bottom dollar it would have been on the bottom of the lake.

The mountains where I grew up, flourescent green mister twisters would catch just about everything.

Great day fishing today.

Went out again this morning. There was a cool four mph breeze on the water until about 0930 or so. 94 degrees at the dock when we started, 116 when I got in the truck at about noon, to load the boat. Thank God for good ac in the truck.

I caught 11 smallies. My buddy caught 10 smallest and a nice bluegill. I caught the smallest again, but I caught the 5 biggest too. 4 of those were maybe a pound or so. Kept the biggest one. A bit over 3 lbs.


Half were caught on the green pumpkin Yamamotos. The other half were caught on the cinnamon with black flake Yamamoto super grubs. They seemed to work better in mixed sun and shade. Dark purplish grey in color.


Last trip out we mostly stayed in the shade. Warm wind instead of cool made the sun brutal that day.
