Saturday Fishing July 10, 2010

I took off this morning about 9 AM, drove to the Fall Creek Falls Lake and was fishing from 10 AM until 4:40 PM. I caught a limit...4-each 1# bass and 1-each 4# bass. Caught 2-on a Strike King KVD Silent Stalker 17' Crankbait, grey with white and red, 1-on a Yum soft platic stick bait, 1-on a blk/blu Zorro Buzza Bug Jig with Zoom Trailer and the #4 bass on Zorro "Dale Hollow" football jig, 3/4-oz.

Perfect! Fished all day, came home to BBQ spare ribs and there's a NASCAR Sprint race on tonight - Sweet!

Alex & Addie

My Sister's husband was visited by his Grand Kids this month - Alex & Addie - I took them out on the boat (Center Hill Lake, TN)and taught them to drive - they went from dead still to plane and then each drove about 15-minutes. Great Fun! They're from Arizona and will be making their first trip flying home alone this week.

A few hours @ FCF

Isaac spent the night Friday so today we all went to FCF State Park and fished for awhile. All tolled, I guess we caught 6 in 3-hours. Here's Isaac with his.

Da Boat

Finally here - here are some pictures.

Isaac's Rod

My Grandson visited over the weekend and reminded me I had not built him a rod as I have my other Grand children. Well, that is now remedied. He wanted a Nashville Predators Hockey Team theme and here's what I came up with.

More Rods

Just a couple of rods I've played with recently - trying to learn a few new things every time.

The new (to me) Tahoe

I've really been wanting a 4-wheeled vehicle for hauling the trailer around the Ranchito and also for hauling the new (to me) boat I'll be fetching from Guntersville this month. Well - My son came through for me with this 1999 Tahoe - new tires, brakes, detailed and checked out, full leather, heated seats, loaded - high mileage but after driving it and "kicking the tires" it's a sound and great riding vehicle. Proud of it and of my son! Thanks, bud!
