Got on water about 11 am out of HBSP went pass Island Cove Marina around the docks and banks in that area, and the bass were&#39;nt happening. Told my father in law, if I ever needed to just catch something I have my ultralight with a 1/8 oz. white Roostertail or similar in line spinner. He had something similar and it was on! We bet for the most and biggest. We lost count of all the bream (50 &#43;/-). He caught a spot about 1lb. and was up on me for about 2 hrs. Bass only counted in the bet of course. Then like the @$$hole that I am, I put it on him with 3 small bass back to back (two had red eyes). Then he said he was hungry for some turkey and I told him to &quot;eat this&quot; as I casted at a blow down and hung a 3 1/2 lb. largemouth. Good fight on an ultralight. To my surprise, I thought I was just going to catch a small trash fish feeling cocky that I won already, and he let his hunger make him want to quit sooner than me.<br /><br />In all, an awesome day with the family. Also it was very windy in most areas. Caught most bream in the calm coves, no size to them , but better than nothing. emoSmile <br /><br />
