For Period Ending Sunday, Dec. 19, 2021


Saturday, Dec. 4 (from Wayne and Ken)...
We journeyed down NC way to participate in today's regular tournament out of Bob's Fishing Hole. It didn't take long after the 8 a.m. blastoff to figure out today's fishing was going to be different than last week. Where we already had boated six bass in the first hour and a half a week ago, we only had a couple of pickerel and a dink bass to show for our efforts in the same span of time this morning. It ended up taking us six hours to amass a limit of three small keeper bass today, along with about four pickerel. Two of the keeper bass fell for mid-level crankbaits, and the other one went for a jerkbait. A quick look at the weigh-in board before we headed home this afternoon revealed that the vast majority of anglers had a lackluster day. While the weigh-in process still was in progress as we bid our adieu, it was easy to detect only three totals in the 5-lb. range and several in the 3-lb. range, which is where we fell in the grand scheme of things. Ran into Andy and Diana Morath at Bob's today, as well as my former West Neck partner, Paul Celentano. Had a call from Gabe Himmelwright after arrival at home, letting me know it'll probably be tomorrow before he can get me the results of their Boundary Bass Club tournament today. Will post those results on the blog as soon as I receive them, so stay tuned.

Saturday, Dec. 18 (from Ron)...
Landed back in town from a business trip at noon yesterday, went home, prepped my gear, and launched (at HRBT) at 3 p.m. Caught a couple of small stripers before landing my best of the day...a 34-incher! With that fish in my lap, and arm fully extended to try and get the photo, I took a bunch of poor pics. May need to get one of those selfie sticks.
