Lets put this together. "Partner had her Hot on the 8"......it wasn't me and it wasn't a tall bald guy next to me so that would put "Partner" as Chris...three of us in a boat and I have not talked to you today...leaves your unnamed source the tall bald guy.

Everything said is true....Chris H had a really nice fish going around and around on a single blade Krook but missed the bait....I casted a double blade Krook back at her and it ate....not positive it was the same fish and this is why......me and the tall bald guy were standing at the rear of a lund fisherman which is about 2 feet wide...fish ate...I set the hook and lost my balance and I end up in the splash pan.

I have been using a new camera that shows the fish going around on the 8 but it also shows me looking where I was going to fall and then up to the clouds.....my wife is still laughing..

It is fun to fish with people from this board.

Nice start to the year.

Well, I have the "woe" of watching this fish go round and round, taking a swing at the Krook, and coming up empty. She was nose on and I was spinning her around as fast as I could. Hot may be an understatement. Bait looks cool though, bulges nice and rides right on/under the surface.

Heard a ruckus and turn around to see KT doing some sort of balancing act and a splash in the water as the fish let go. Sounds like a good sky shot on video. Double Krook leaves a wake you need to see.

Baldy moved a nice fish too, I'm back this weekend to convert, and work on an extended platform to accomodate special needs partners.

Fun evening out, thanks guys.
