: The Three Fishermen Bets (2/26)
: Latimeria February 27, 2017, 07:32:44 AM

What a hell of a morning.  Lost my contact lens at o' dark thirty and could not find it to save my life.  Quarantined the BR and went to glasses.
Hooked up boat and threw a ton of gear in the boat as I was already running behind schedule.

Heavy to light drizzle for most of the day and had to compete with a bunch of glitter boats out on a bass tourney.

The three fishermen bets...

First Fish.

Most Species

(I dropped my 4# trout line down 94' deep and hooked up!  A cat from this depth on 4# is pretty awesome!)

Biggest Fish

By default, I got the only fish, so they were the biggest!

Prize was a brand new boat!

We tried a bunch of spots and a bunch of techniques... it was tough fishing for sure.  I didn't see another fish or even hear another fish caught all day.

OK, I wish, but it was still a fun day on the water.  Thankfully my wife found my contact lens as she snuck into the quarantined BR, so my day even got better!

Thanks for reading.

Glad she found it. I knew you were having a rough day so I held back my efforts.

Even broke off a big one and told you it was a snag.
