This time in my favor, but still a problem. At bedtime last night the weather looked pretty miserable. I talked to my client and pulled the plug on today’s trip.
This morning I woke up early anyway, walked outside to see a perfectly clear, starry sky, and not a breath of wind. Grabbed a cup of coffee and a bowl of fruit loops, then out the door. I was going fishing; no clients, no worries, just fishing for the fun of it.
I tried shooting a couple of Too Busy’s Tech Tips, but the rods just kept going off while I was filming. Didn’t matter what I put out, it got hit. finger mullet, shrimp, crab, then switched to plastics; Z-Man CrabZ, ShrimpZ and Rain MinnowZ.
Since I was trying to film TBTT’s I put the plastics out and dead sticked them on circle hooks.

I wish, ended up staying home instead of fishing, hope that I have the same luck. Good video, makes me want to be out there even more
I know. I cancelled my fishing trip and cut the grass instead, then it didn’t rain until 5 oclock. I was not a happy camper.

Yeah it was nice out there today. I saw you catch one of those 25 when I passed you today.
Nothing makes a fish bigger than almost being caught.
Come on now, I wasn’t invited haha, Looks like you had a great day
Bragging may not bring happiness,
I was on the Wando today. Can’t believe I cancelled a charter because of the weather forecast. sheesh.

It was a fun day Dave. I had a punch list of 4 videos that I wanted to shoot. Every time I put a rod out and started talking, the drag would start to scream. Gotta love it when the fish cooperate with the plan.

How do you like those long rods? The biggest I have is 7’. I wanna avoid netting problems…?

I like the long rod. I can run a fish around the bow of the T160 with ease.
For landing, just be sure not to reel in too much line. I keep a full rod length of line between the rod tip and the fish
