Unfortunately the fish died, but hey, you made someone's day.

Nice fish guyz.

Ok Guys I'm done for the Month.

I will be leaving early tomorrow for PA. My mother has been hospitalized for severe Back Pain. Been on strong meds since Wednesday, Had shots done today. Will find out Monday if they need to do Surgery.

She is 84 so this is no small thing, anything could happen and I need to be there just in case.

Don't know when I'll be back, so if you would Lou just count me IN for May now.

Thanks

Headed to Toho in the morning. Most likely by myself. If anyone wants to jump in send me a message with a phone number and I will text in the morning.

Im going to fish the griffin road canals this morning by vista view park in weston. There are multiple sub canals in the area and small ponds that seem accessable if google maps is correct. If i have no luck ill hit up vista view park at 8am when they open up. Deadeye sorry about your mom. Hope she gets better soon.

Went out yesterday for a few. It was hot! Caught 6 but the biggest was 16 so nothing to cull.

West6550 · April 25, 2015, 06:49:30 AM

Safe trip Fred! Prayers for your mother.

Capt. BassinLou · April 25, 2015, 07:00:34 AM

Fred, sorry to hear about your Mom. I will include you in the May roster, no worries. Have a safe trip.

Capt. BassinLou · April 25, 2015, 07:01:09 AM

Goodluck this weekend to everyone who is hitting the water.

Capt. BassinLou · April 25, 2015, 09:50:50 AM

My boat is at the shop. My mechanic suspects the thermostat could be shot. Fingers crossed its a quick fix.

West6550 · April 25, 2015, 09:51:44 AM

Do or die Wednesday WEST. No pressure!!

Happy B-DAY to the MRS.

Boats fixed... woohoo!! It wasn't the thermostat after all. One of the water pump blades was messed up. Don't know how.

Started the day on Hatchineha then Cypress, then Toho and back to Hatch. It was a wonderful boat ride with a few bites sprinkled in. No fish though...

Congratulations Lou! I am hoping to be up there one day! Last year I missed it by a 1/2 inch one month if I recall correctly.

Thanks West. I have been trying to hit 100" for close to 2 yrs now. I have gotten close, but to be 1/2" away, I had to get out on the water and bust my butt to hit the goal. Fortunately I did. Whew.... I now really appreciate Fred's record of 114". Records are meant to be broken so my new goal is 115" hehehe. ..

Deadeye · April 27, 2015, 06:29:48 AM

Leave my Record alone Lou.

Lol

Deadeye · April 27, 2015, 06:31:38 AM

By the way i think lou is the bass whisperer. He can see and hear fish that arent even in the same canal as him. Like super powers of some sort lol.
