Texas Hawg Hunter Posted October 26, 2014 Posted October 26, 2014 Anyone ever start your weekday morning with a few casts before work? I'm talking a job you have to be at by 9am at the latest. I go after work but only get in 1 to 1.5 hrs at a time. Quote
joefish Posted October 26, 2014 Posted October 26, 2014 Used to on occasion before I retired. I had a very flexible schedule and understanding boss. Quote
rhino Posted October 26, 2014 Posted October 26, 2014 I generally step down to my dock and make a few casts before work. Being self employed I have a boss that doesn't care if fishing runs me a few minutes late. haha 2 Quote
Topwaterspook Posted October 26, 2014 Posted October 26, 2014 Yes. We had a big, electrical job at a local university. On their property were three small ponds close to our construction trailers. There was a good concentration of buzzbait hungry bass. It was a great way to start the day for a few months. 1 Quote
Super User everythingthatswims Posted October 26, 2014 Super User Posted October 26, 2014 My summer job was located about a 1/4 mile from a pond choked with lily pads and full of frog-eating bass, so those fish definitely saw me a few times in the early morning hours. I have fished before school a few times but last time I did that I lost a swimbait and got skunked....not a good way to start off a Monday! Quote
Jolly Green Posted October 26, 2014 Posted October 26, 2014 Almost every morning, as I live within fifteen minutes of a dozen good bank spots along the river that runs through our little town. Plus, with a nine county service territory, I always have a rod and tackle bag with me because there is literally water everywhere I go. Sometimes I even end up working in houses right on a lake with homeowners that simply insist that I spend lunch time out on their dock. Twist my arm... Quote
Jtrout Posted October 26, 2014 Posted October 26, 2014 I go every morning before work there is a 37 acre lake less than a mile away and I usually get there at 7:25 and stay until about 8-8:20 it's nice no ones fishing and the fog coming off the lake looks awesome. I don't wanna go to work lol Quote
Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted October 26, 2014 Global Moderator Posted October 26, 2014 I have to be at work at 11:45pm, so I get out before once in awhile. I get off work at 8am, so I go after pretty often. Quote
TBO Posted October 26, 2014 Posted October 26, 2014 i have a few times. their was a pond on my way to the shop so i would fish for maybe a half hour. it sucks having to go to work after getting in a few cast. especially when you catch one. i got in trouble a few times for being half hour late haha Quote
bassguytom Posted October 27, 2014 Posted October 27, 2014 I go out early when it's warm before work but when it gets cold I wait until After work or take a half day. Quote
Super User DogBone_384 Posted October 27, 2014 Super User Posted October 27, 2014 I will when working my second job where I schedule the work. There's a decent reservoir 15 minutes from home that's central to local highways. My primary job starts at 0700, so no go on those days. Quote
