We decided late last night to put our asses in bed and give Hefner a shot at daybreak. We met at the ramps about 6am, ready to go. Only 2 other boats on the water from what we could see. The trolling motor was gleaming with shiny plastic newness.
We jetted to the East Wharf to go for some bass and Chad realized he forgot his rods! It's amazing how a little excitement can make you miss the most important thing on a fishing trip. Luckily I had a spare and we got to fishing. It didn't take long before our first real issue. The trolling motor was "sputtering" a bit, and then suddenly stopped. We found a bad connection on a patch panel and were back in business in no time. Unfortunately, the downtime was right when we needed to have our poles in the water.
Sorry to say, Chad was the only one that got a hit. Looked like a small bass, but it never made it to the boat. At least we know we can stand the heat till about 10am on days like today where the high is supposed to be 106! We're looking to broaden our horizons by taking a trip up Northeast. Look for more to come!
