Smokinal Posted October 15, 2015 Posted October 15, 2015 So I'm on vaca this week. Started my week on Sunday, took out the kayak to a new little pond but only caught 2; most of the time was scouting it anyway. Then on Wednesday, my buddy and I took my boat out to western Maine area to fish a lake with a pretty good reputation. I will not repeat that though. We fished 9 hrs and caught 1 bass each. Needless to say I will not be returning to that lake again any time soon. I shouldn't say that, it was a tough day all around. We spoke to 2 guys in Rangers and they they both had a tough day as well. The bite just was not on that day. We had a good dinner, some great beers and stayed in a motel for the night as we had planned on fishing said lake Thursday as well. Well after a couple beers we decided to stay the night there but get up early, drive back to our home lake and fish that today; and it didn't disappoint. Back to the normal 55 between the 2 of us in half the time. Saw a couple of eagles and then saw a moose swimming across the lake. We trolled over near it but I didn't want to stress him out so we stayed back as it got on shore, stood there for a couple of minutes catching his breath then wandered off into the woods. Here's a couple vaca bass 7 Quote

Smokinal Posted October 16, 2015 Author Posted October 16, 2015 sounds like a great vacation to me! Most definitely! You know what they say about the worst day of fishing... It's been a great week so far with the highlight being that my son, a freshman in college, got to come home last Sat through Tues for the long weekend; and this Sat we go up to his school for family day. I'm so proud of him and really enjoy keeping in touch with him, hearing about his classes, his baseball etc... He says the thing he likes best about college is having the gym at his disposal until 11pm. Gee, I wonder where he got that from. Quote
