After having been under the weather for almost 2 weeks (and still not feeling 100%) I finally got back on the water yesterday for a morning session.
I tried topwater for the first 45 minutes with no joy, then the middle column stuff, but all the biters seemed stuck on the bottom.
I ended the morning with 7 total all of them coming on a Texas rigged green pumpkin trick worm. I was off the water and exhausted by 10:30 but it felt really good to get some fresh air and nature. I know it's just what I needed to start feeling better.
Oh and by the way, I finally got a new scale, now I'll have definitive proof that all those 2 pounders are in reality 6+ for sure!
I'm Baaaaack! D&K 8/9

Re: I'm Baaaaack! D&K 8/9
Welcome back and hope you will be back to feeling 100% better soon. Been there and it sucked. So nice to see your post
this morning and you back in action. Glad you finally got a scale, but for me it sometimes tells me that a bass may not be
as big. A bass I figured was about 5 1/2 because it was so much bigger than the other bass I was catching recently at
Miramar was actually 4.75lbs. Oh heck, still better to have a scale, and besides most of the time when you are catching
bass, the scale really doesn't come out much unless you hit a few healthy ones. Looks like there will be some 6lb'ers
down the road in between all the other bass you pull out on your fishing adventures. Tight lines always

Good job..D.K. is fishing tough when the topwater's not happening! Hate it when people get a scale...then Vinny and I can't argue whether a fish is 3.5 or if it's 3.6....
