WOW the launch was packed I put in and went to a few spots I've never fished before then worked my way back to some old spots after they opened up. What a circus. Seemed everyone was crappie fishn'πŸ₯΄πŸ€« . Not me I got 11 today and got run off the lake by a nasty afternoon SW wind . Got home in time to mow most of the yard too. A few misses and almost to the boat fish too. On my way back toward the launch staying tight to the bank and in and out of all the little cives I spotted something that just didn't look right. This big ( like a hub cap) Softshell turtle was basking away in the sunshine and I got right up to her. After a couple pics and me trying to back away she plunged back in the water. πŸΈπŸΈπŸΈπŸΈπŸΈπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡²πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡²πŸ™

BTW What cigar brand is that? Looks like it would be good sitting down at night with a cup of coffee or something a little stronger.

Just another day at the office for you Andy, man you smash the bass on those frogs! Going to have to give them an honest try. Cool turtle as well, I’ve never seen a soft shell.

Looks like froggy is off to a good start in 24 Andy. I am sure many in that parking lot would be envious of your day. Nice going.

Well one would like to think so, however since I go thru 5-6 on a long day I'm afraid that would effectively break my bank account. Truth be known these are Cuban mistakes brand and I get a box of 100 for about $ 85-$ 90:00 so they're pretty inexpensive and not much of a loss if broken or lost in the process of " Rippn' Lips" they keep me from sayn' stuff that a guy who just cut me off might not want hear! and keeps me from bitting my lip when I concentrate. I do have a wonderful friend who gives me really good cigars at times which I take the time to appreciate with a good cup of coffee. I really can't afford to buy the really top of the line cigars and I really don't experience quite the same nuances some describe while smoking them . So I'll stick with my cheapies and hopefully while I'm chewing on one end the Bass will be a chewing y the other. .., but I'd never turn down a good one either probably just wouldn't make it to the yac! πŸ€— . Be seeing ya soon I hope at the M&G πŸΈπŸΈπŸΈπŸΈπŸΈπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡²πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡²πŸ™

Thanks, as I mentioned I wouldn't mind if you came in close to see what's going on. I'm really not doing anything special my friend . A lot of casting to what I believe are fishy looking places . Sometimes you have to put it right on top of them if they're close to the bank sitting in a pocket. A lot of times they won't come out very far to chase it , but when they do it often looks like a torpedo and I missed my first one of the season because I got excited and swung way too soon . She came out of some standing brush about 3' to chase my frog. WOW that gets the blood pumping fast and in a hurry. That's part of what makes frogn' fun and you stand a good chance of getting bigger fish over all. Net em , weight em take a pic, give em a kiss and send them back in . See ya soon at the M&G. Stay safe and good fortune this season enjoy your living room on the water!!! That's what J calls it. πŸΈπŸΈπŸΈπŸΈπŸΈπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡²πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡²πŸ™
