woke up 5am on 8/16/07 throwed kayak zoar sport in truck. Set there thinking i can go fishing any where in the USA I WANT. Bcause i am a FREE MAN. we all take this for granted. GOD BLESS ALL OF OUR TROUPS PAST AND PRESENT. Saw 6 deer 2 were this years model. Caught 7 wide mouths 2 brim. Put in at 49 launch. Caught first bass across from pier on fly rod. Went along bridge to other side went away from dam. Past a slew of islands. Missed at least 10 bass on plastic. Thay ate the red claws off my cray fish and the yellow tales off my lizards. Found a 6 or 7 foot pipe going under rail road. Got a running start, paddle was to long, pulled my way through with my hands. A 5 acre pond lost a nice 1. On the way back in saw a gang of bass had a bunch of shad surrounded in the shallow cove to the left. Got 6 on a roostertail. It was hard to leave thay were still hitting but it was dark.I left at 8 pm .The weather and god was very good to me .The trip was too long for HOT WIRE my jack russell. Had the time of my life. Thanks ZOOKER you were right. HIP
