That dabm Ouachita!!

[Dando]

Turned from a lake with fish in it, back to Ouachita... JUST in time for the weekend.

And what a weekend it was...
I have an air matress we use for camping. It's fine and sleeps fine. Not sure why I don't just leave it in the truck. Seeing as how this is the THIRD time in two years out room had a matress with a hole in the middle. (you lay down and have to fight not to roll to the center).
Neither of us slept A WINK Friday night. Oh, well, no sleep Friday means dog ass tired after a tournament, and we knew NOTHING would keep us awake Saturday night.
Couldn't find my big fish Saturday. Caught and caught and ALL fish the same size.
Oh well, Sunday's a new day, maybe with some rest and a fresh start....I'll find that school of HAWGS again.

Layed down at 9:00. Looked at the clock at 10:30 and finally....I was snoozin'.
11:00 Sharon wakes me up in tears and 12:00 we are sitting in the emergency room. 3:45 we are back in bed. IF "wanna be" doctor is correct, Sharon has a kidney stone and is on some awsome drugs.
She decides I should fish, and she thinks she will be fine for 8hrs. And get some sleep. I decide to go ahead and fish due to not wanting to let somebody down. (WEE bit of tournament pressure was applied Friday evening).

No sleep, by myself...I have three fish in the ALL OUT, NOT EVEN CLOSE, HANDS DOWN Winning tournament HAWG size... pull loose on three casts. (two crankbait and one drop shot). I found the school and just couldn't get em within reach of a net...not that I had a net, but, all pulled loose 10ft from the boat.

With a tear in my eye, I weighed in my little fishies, got my wife, and headed to the house with my tail superglued tween my legs....Probably $2000 poorer than I left the house with.

At doctor right now. Making sure the initial diagnosis is correct. And...hurting.

I've known her 26 years.
This is the 2nd time I've taken her to the ER.
So, If she says she needs to go to the hospital? I get worried fast.

I'm not sure she's EVER missed a day of work due to illness....(well, today)

Had a night like that with my wife...turned out it was gall stones in her gall bladder. They removed it the next day. Took 10 hours of test before they figured out what was wrong....

everything is ok....

Mom has those.
Isn't that on your right side though?

I had an episode with gall stones. Right side just under my ribcage with pain radiating around into your back. It made a baby out of me, that will put you on your knees - hurt like I've never felt before. After two hours at the emergency room, pain just went away. Two weeks later, gall bladder was gone. Having it removed was less painfull than passing one of those stones.

I know the feeling about the wife not ever complaining she doesnt feel good. My wife had many operations as a child and in her teens so she has a very high tolerance for pain so when she says I have to go to the Dr. or ER I get very worried. I hope Sharon is ok and all will be fine

As for Ouachita I was there Sunday and caught a Buttload of dinks and only 3 decent fish which I stumbled upon a lone tree in 70 feet of water and the top of the tree was at about 15 feet and there were fish sitting in the upper limbs, the only reason I found out about it is I had a small backlash so I decide to make a cast off the deep side of the boat and fix the lash as I am reeling in I get pounded with a nice 3 pounder and I look at the depth finder and think to myself where the hell is this fish in 70 feet of water 100 feet off the shore I went in that direction slowly with the fishfinder found the tree and caught 6 off of it only 3 with decent size. Sometimes that Lake makes no sense to me but then again what does.
