Had a great Wednesday with my 2nd oldest Grandson fishing Center Hill Lake.  Water temps were 82-84, light breeze (often not enough) and partly cloudy skies.  We used Booza Football jigs; I used 3/4 on casting gear and he use 1/2 oz on spinning.  I hooked an 18" LM and flipped him in the boat - while that was going on BJ was just standing with his jig in the water watching me.  When I boated, measured and but it in the live well, he returned to fishing and had a fish on his line...a nice 17.8" spot - about 3#, that he brought to the boat.  It was gut hooked so I cut off the jig and placed him in the treated live well.  He didn't make it but we took a picture of him with it and also a picture with my LM.  He's a Freshman in College this year.

We also caught 4 others but smaller in size but just as much fun.  Came home to homemade chili and chips and he decided to spend the night.  He starts college Aug 25th so we need to make a few more trips before then.  The whole family (25+) will rent a big place on Tim's Ford for the Labor Day Weekend...we'll get some fishing done then for sure.
