TimJ Posted March 25, 2011 Posted March 25, 2011 Last week, my sons and I went out for a couple of trips with FishinDaddy, Lee, and his fellow guide Vince. The first trip was on Lake X (you'll have to ask Lee. lol) with Vince where we fished 14-16ft water with worms...something new to my boys. They ate it up! We put well over 30 fish in the boat and now have the boys asking to LM fish more often up here as we are usually SM fishing. Our second trip was on Kissimmee with a short run onto Hatch. The morning started with a flurry and I discovered a new (for me...remember the smallies...) favourite for messy water in the swim jig. Lee put me onto fish, I just failed to get them all into the boat. As the day slowed, we flipped with some success. It's been awhile since I worked hard for LM like this but I really enjoyed it. I asked a bunch of questions, all of which were answered, learning a lot about the fish that I haven't pursued much over the last 10+ yrs. Meanwhile, Vince had the boys out in different areas (we occasionally crossed paths though) and had them flipping, which they had done before but not for awhile. They caught some fish and had a couple of neat deals with nature. A baby gator decided to swim over and hang out with them for awhile. Then the kicker was that they actually had a go at a bedding 8-9lber right at days end. It picked up Corey's bait but didn't inhale and it wouldn't go again. We didn't get that big Florida dream fish but Lee and Vince worked hard to put us on some fish and the boys and I are grateful for some excellent time on the water. We had a blast. Thanks guys.

BassResource.com Advertiser FD. Posted March 26, 2011 BassResource.com Advertiser Posted March 26, 2011 It was my pleasure to spend the day with you and the boys and Vince and I are glad you had a good time. From the first fish on the 3rd cast to the smack talk and text messages between boats to the burgers afterward, it was a great day. I only wish that Corey could have stuck that big one. See you guys again next year. <---------photo from secret lake x Quote
