I rang up Jeremy last week during the long break to join me for a short boat fishing trip since the boat was laying around my yard. Initially I wanted to test the outboard, but not knowing whether it works or not... I would rather not take the chance and have Jeremy bring over his motorguide thruster.
The planned trip was supposely to have the boat touch the water before sunset, but due to some 'technical' hitch, it was delayed till 8am... to have the boat loaded.
A 10-footer looks like a pygmy on his montrous truck.
After having our stomach filled, we were off ..
This monstrous truck is no match for these..... had to stop and let it pass.
Finally... the boat hit the water.. and that is my boatman.. LOL
We did not ventured far from land due to some 'power' problems. Our batteries was not fully charged.
The first fish landed....
Caught that with the 3DS popper on my 4-8lb light tackle setup. Great fun..!!
A lot of raises around that area but the fish couldn't be bothered with lures running above them..
We headed back nearer to the land and tried our luck on peacock bass..
I was surprised to found out that there was not many area at the spot they normally hide.
Then Jeremy caught his first fish... He out smarted one of the 'orange' fish.
Then his second and third.....
That was it... No more fish.. and we headed back for lunch.
It was hard to believe that I did not land a peacock bass where they are abundance in this lake!!!
Before the long break ends, I made a solo trip there across the other side of the lake and did some land based casting...
The weather was not very kind though. I had only an hour of fishing period before it rained heavily.. but it was great fun... 1 cast 1 fish................
Now that is what I am talking about....!!!
