Yep I just got out to cast a rod on Sat. My boat was in the shop for about 5 weeks. That is a story for another day.
So got in the water about 11:00 or so.. parking lot full of vehicles, yep it is perch time. Fired the boat up made sure the t-stats were working, checked all gauges, and suited up ( yep it was a little chilly). Everything checked out so we just cruised down the river to the ssshhhh Special Spot #1. I needed to get that first fish in the boat for 2018. I am throwing the best bait ever, war eagle spinnerbait with a caffine shad trailer on it. Slow rolling it over the wood and wait for it... ok nothing happens. Try a lipless nothing. Try jerk bait nothing. So we head the special spot #2. Oh yea its on like donkey kong... nope. So now we go to the ok spots 1 by 1. Nothing, nothing, nothing... well you get the picture.
So the good news I got to go fishing for a few hours with my son, my brother, and my nephew. It was a great day on the water. I guess the fishing can only get better!!!.
I know this was not the story yall were wanting to read but this is how it goes sometimes. I am headed to Gaston next weekend, then to Santee on the 29th. Maybe I can learn to catch one by then.
