<br />SKUNK SEASON IS OVER!<br /><br />I got out on the water this morning at 7:45 and arrived at my honey hole about 8. On the third or fourth cast I put an end to the terrible winter doldrums with a 3lb&#39;ish spotted bass! He didn&#39;t put up much of a fight and I landed him pretty quickly. After the sun started beating down I didn&#39;t catch a thing. My co-pilot which was a bag of concrete, took the photo of the bass. 
After being blown around like a sailboat and popping wheelies trying to plane-out yesterday I put a bag of concrete in the bow to keep it down, totally redneck idea, but worked like a champ. emoApplause<br /><br />The water is still at 42-43 degrees and I didn&#39;t see much fish activity other than a lot of schooling bait fish around 20-30&#39;. I am still trying to wrap my mind around the new SONAR.<br /><br />I did bump into a fellow CFF&#39;er (deepwater) while on the water which was nice! <br /><br /><br /><br /><br />
