No, my children did not get me a skunk for Father’s Day… I was finally able to go out for a few hours this Father’s Day to a nearby lake to catch up on my R&R but alas, I got skunked. Don’t get me wrong, I still had a nice couple of hours but wasn’t able to get anything going. I don’t even think I got bit. If you have noticed, I have not posted in a while; even though I have fished. The last few weekends, I’ve fished maybe an hour here, an hour there but not long at any one time. I have picked up a few dinks but nothing worth noting, but at least I caught something (not like this weekend).
Tried out just about everything in my tackle box (hard baits) and one type of plastic worm as it’s the only package I still have after I lost my soft plastics case a few weeks ago
All the rain we got during last week brought the lake up a good foot or so (and we definately needed it here in South Florida). There were a few Peacock packs roaming the shoreline (1# and below) but they wanted nothing to do with my baits.
I must admit that I have not been skunked for quite a while and I don’t like it. Hopefully I can pick something up next weekend and form a pattern. Till then, I’d like to wish all the Father’s a wonderful day!!!
