Went down to Carson City today shoppin and on the way back here this evenin bout a 1/2 mile from thr house there was a black bear on the side of the road. It wanted to cross but we scared it off . It stopped a little ways off and I believe it went ahead and crossed after we went by.
So we get home and I'm unloadin the truck and I turn around and there is another different bear bout 15 feet away from me.
I told it to go on and get out of here but it was a young bear and didn't understand Texan for scram.
After I unloaded the truck I needed to spread some soil around the front yaed and it kept me company for bout a half hour.
I took a few pics of it before it finally decided there wasn't any food for it here and went on up the street to the neighbors house, where it started eatin the grass in his yard and laid down in his front yard.
Eventually it wandered on off. But it REALLY wanted to go in our garage and look for food. I had to run him off from there but he stayed around for awhile to see if he could get back to the garage.

Went fishing 🎣 in Manasquan Inlet this evening during a nor’easter gale in the rain on the outgoing tide. Saw bluefish and a skate caught while getting ready to go fishing. Nobody was near my spot on the jetty. After I caught, tagged, then released a 31” 9 lb bluefish with a diamond jig, two fishermen were to the left of my spot and 4 fishermen were to the right of my spot. I went further out on the jetty past everyone but two fishermen followed me, then started fishing 🎣 to my left and right. The guy to my right started casting across my spot and to my left. Didn’t get a hit or see a fish 🐟 get caught after that. Saw a school of spawning blackfish jump out of the inlet. The wind nearly blew me away when I walked back to my car to go home. Got wet.

Went to berryessa yesterday. Started in the usual place, skiers cove to inside the narrows then out to the main lake. Marked most fish between 20 and 40 feet. Unusual day, hooked 12 fish and lost seven, landed 5. Landing ratio is normally better than that. Trolled between 1.8 and 2.5 mph depending on gear out. Got most hits on the usual the usual gear, 5” blue UV sling blade and a 2 1/2’ 13 led fluro leader to a blue/white glow wiggle hoochie at 1.8 mph. But did pick up a few with a modified meat rig with 8” pro troll flasher, or a spin doctor in front of cut plug. The last fish in the limit was a 23” trout!
