Mike got a new dog over the winter and wanted to see how he'd fair in the boat. I'd say he did pretty good, I'll give him an A+ for day one and a solid B for day two, he started to get a little annoyed we wanted to fish as much as we did and it was cramping his stick chewing and exploring options.
He did well when we had fish on the line and in the boat, just a little curious but not at all out of control.
Ever find it strange how on one day all the fish go to one guy and on the next day they all go to the other guy? Well that's what happened to us. I nailed 3 on the Friday and Mike went 4 for 5 on the Saturday. I'm sure at some point we were using the same things, with the same amount of line out but it didn't matter if I was on the inside or outside I got the bite on the Friday and vice versa for Mike on the Saturday. I for one thought I was dialed in come Saturday morning, big surprise to find out I wasn't. The technique was dialed in as Mike would prove, but me, not so much.
Caught a real nice one for our little lac that gave some headshakes and a nice battle.
Mike got the win on numbers, but like he's told me a hundred times while bass fishing, it's who catches the big one that gets the belt.
Well back at it this Friday, lets hope there's bigger ones to be found by both of us.
