    Re: Tell me a fishing story, true or not

    Middle of August, 2:00 in the morning, throwing Zoom Pumpkinberry U-tail worm on a long sloping point outside of Holmes Bend on Green River. Set the hook and nothing gives. Buddy says I'm hung in a log or rock until my lines starts moving. AQfter a 15 minute dead weight fight, up comes my bass of a lifetime. Netted and guessed in at 8 plus. All marinas are closed and it's just too hot to put this fish in the live well and keep it there 4-5 hours to weigh it.
    Take a few pictures and turn her loose. The pictures did not turn out and i've kept the memory. And the weight hasn't gone up over the years, I keep it at 8 plus and go with it. (true)

    Re: Tell me a fishing story, true or not

    There was another time I was fishing Helecopter lures tied onto the treble hook of a Dance's Eel under the shallow water boat docks at Herrington Lake. Every 2-3 cast I would catch a 3-5 lber with a 6-7 lber every tenth cast or so. Got so tired after a few hours of this I had to get out on the bank and lay down. Once rested up I would go at it again and this went on for six days. Finally started fishing for mermaid in the shallows down by the dam and caught my third wife. Didn't last long, she always seemed a lil fishy. (leave that alone!!) Boy, what a time!!

    Talking Re: Tell me a fishing story, true or not

    Should have used one of them thar Dance's Craw's, might have even had a better day that the one you had, especially catching dem mermaids and all them big Basses...

    What wuz that fishing pole made of and were it as stout as a broom handle...did you by chance try any jelly snoppin worms as well.... Heard that if you would have went about another 100 yards on down the bank, yee coulda got youself into a mess ole big ole Piney Blue Back Pickled Trouser Trouts...Heard they put up one heck of a fight, especially when they is guard'n their nest.... Heard that if'n one bite you, you could have to lay there for the venom to drain out of your system for up to 3 days, says they makes you feel lazy and like you is recoverin from some sort of major surgery...

    But I don't know cuz I's only been bitten by one of those Silver Haired Rattle Neck Pee Fish....Heard when they is all mean they turns Golden yeller and stink to high heaven...These fish makes a man think he's been married for his entire life time and feel like he's had tons of back surgeries....

    Well I better be gitten on back down to the farm, the boys and I might be going out to do some of that fancy Ice fish'n, Only's we taint had much luck fishin when the Ice is froze on the lake, seems all our bait does is freeze and just lay thar on the ice...Ain't never had a fish bite threw that ice yet and take our bait.....Talk agin later Elnut Ole Buddy.....
