I had a really bad experience at Juvenile Court this morning and I was pretty bummed out. It dawned on me that I really needed to go fishing. I called Hal and we launched a little after 4 pm. I didn't want to do much thinking so we just went on one of our standard routes. Up to the barge tieups at the dam and then down the Chatt State bank. I hooked only one fish that seemed like a good one but it got off after a second or so. We wound up with 9 total. A couple of goggle eye, a lm, a spot and a couple of bream. Hal did catch the most ambitious bass I ever saw today. I believe this fish actually attacked the lure. He was not foul hooked. Like I said, I didn't want to do any serious thinking, I just wanted a couple of hours with a good friend. Our trip was really successful!!
