That's how kayakers Ron Ameika and his son, Alex, say they feel after suffering a washout/skunk at Albright's this past Friday evening, combined with a skunk on Lake Prince the following day.
Sunday's trip to Princess Anne Wildlife Management Area (PAWMA) wasn't much better. "The wind was howling," reported Ron. And while they were protected from the breeze in the canal, they had their hands full from debris on the water. "It was covered with wind-blown debris, pine needles, leaves, and you-name-it," explained Ron, adding, "it made for frustrating fishing."
The PAWMA trip wasn't a complete loss, though, in that Ron managed to boat one dink on an XTS minnow, and Alex scored four bass in quick succession on a Mann's 1-Minus crankbait, with the biggest one tipping the scales just shy of 2 lbs. "He was finding them near tree branches along the bank," said Ron.
Their bite lasted from 12:30 to 1:30, then shut down. They also talked to a fella on the bank, who had four rods baited with live minnows but said he hadn't even had a bite.
"Time to dust off the snowboards and put a tarp over the kayaks," concluded Ron. "Tight Lines!"
