fishing with Bassass

[lonehunter]

WELL WE FINALLY MADE OUR FIRST TRIP OUT ON THE WATER TODAY , AFTER A SMALL DELAY BY YOURS TRULEY . TRUST ME , NEVER LET YOUR YOUNG ONES HOLD A SLUMBER-PARTY THE NIGHT BEFORE YOU GO FISHING , "SLUMBER" IS THE LAST THING ON THERE YOUNG MINDS , PARTY , WELL THAT PART FITS PERFECTLY !

BASSASS HAD HIS BOAT READY TO GO DESPITE THE DRIZZLE AND COOL TEMPRATURES THAT GREETED US THIS MORNING . AS BASSASS SAID "THE WEATHERMAN MUST HAVE BEEN THINKING OF FLORIDA WHEN HE MADE HIS REPORT"( FRIDAY) , CLEAR SUNNY SKIES WERN'T ANYWHERE IN THE TOP HALF OF THE MIT FROM WHAT WE COULD TELL . AS MUCH AS WE HATED TO THERE WERE A FEW BRIEF MOMENTS WE HAD TO SET THE RODS DOWN TO REGAIN THE FEELINGS IN OUR HANDS .

OFF TO ONE OF HIS SECRET HONEY HOLES WE WENT , DON'T ASK ME THE NAME OF THE PLACE , A FISHERMANS PROMISE WAS MADE , AND AS YOU KNOW , IF YOU BREAK THAT PROMISE , YOU'LL NEVER COME UP WITH A LAGITAMATE EXCUSE TO SKIP A DAY OF WORK TO GO FISHING EVER AGAIN .

I WONT EMBARESS MYSELF BY BRAGGING ABOUT THE LIL' FELLERS I COUGHT , BUT THEY WERE OF A SIZE THAT WOULD GET A YOUNGSTER'S HEART ASKING IF WE COULD KEEP THEM . BUT ALAST , THEY WERE WAY UNDER THE LEGAL SIZE LIMIT . WAY , WAY UNDER .

AS PROMISED BY BASSASS I DID MANAGE TO HOOK A NORTHERN , BUT THE LITTLE GUY JUST SAID "NO WAY TODAY LONEHUNTER "AND SHOOK THE FLATFISH LURE OFF AND FLIPPED ME A FIN AS HE SWAM OFF . SOME FISH , WHERE DO THEY PICK THESE BAD HABITS UP FROM ? LOL !

NOW , BASSASS , OR I SHOULD SAY MR. BASSASS IMPRESSED ME WITH HIS FISHING KNOWLEDGE , GENERAL CHIT-CHAT ABOUT EVERYDAY FISHING STUFF , AND HIS SKILL AS A FISHERMAN , WHAT A GUY !

HE'S A REAL DOWN TO EARTH PERSON , GOOD FAMILY MAN , AN ACTIVE SPORTSMAN , ONE HECK OF A GENEROUS HOST , A SELF TOUGHT COMPUTER PERSON , AND A DARN WORKING HARD INDIVIDUAL . DOES HE KNOW HOW TO FISH ? YOU BETCHA ! HIS FAVORITE LURE REMAINS A SECRET TOO , HECK , I SKIP WORK NOW AND THEN , I DON'T WANT TO JINX MYSELF !

I CAN'T TELL YOU ABOUT ALL THOSE HUGE BASS THIS GUY WAS PUTTING BACK INTO HIS HONEY HOLE , YOU'DE WARE OUT A COUPLE IRON SKILLETS BEFORE YOU'DE FRY UP ALL THOSE FISH , NO LIE EITHER !

AND AS FOR THERE SIZE , WELL TAKE A LOOK ! THE FIRST GUEST THAT MADE HIS PRESENCE KNOWN WAS OL' MARBLE EYES HIMSELF .

THESE OTHER BASS WERE PHOTOGRAPHED AS A FAVOR TO ME , MR.BASSASS IS NO BRAGGER , HE DOSEN'T FISH TO SHOW OFF , HE FISHES BECAUSE HE LOVES THE SPORT , COULD YOU PUT THESE GUYS BACK WITHOUT A SECOND THOUGHT ? HECK IT NEVER EVEN CROSSED HIS MIND , ONE BY ONE THEY WENT INTO THE WATER . WHAT A FISHERMAN ! THESE ARE JUST A FEW OF THE MANY HE COUGHT TODAY .

NOW , BELIVE IT OR NOT , WE WERE ON THE WATER FOR ABOUT NINE HOURS , IT SEEMED LIKE WE WERE ONLY OUT THERE FOR AN HOUR OR TWO AT THE MOST . TALK ABOUT TIME FLYING WHILE YOUR HAVING FUN , WOOSH ! IT SHOT BY US BOTH !

I'M TELLING YOU THERE'S A WHOLE LOTTA GUYS OUT THERE THAT CALL THEMSELVES FISHERMEN , THEN THERE'S GUYS LIKE MR. BASSASS , FISHERMAN ISN'T A WEEKEND TITLE FOR HIM , IT'S HIS LIFESTYLE !

WHAT A FANTASTIC DAY OF FISHING I HAD , THANK YOU BASSASS , UH , I MEAN MR.BASSASS !
