    Ok yeah, we saw yall cleaning at the slip. You were washing the boat and he was cleaning fish. Ben Da Rod charters I think. And you guys(or just him) were in front of us as we were leaving Sweetwater.

    Respect to both you guys.

    But that’s the difference right?

    Professionals can do it consistently

    when it counts,

    despite the odds.

    Conditions change, fish move, patterns shift; you gotta learn, adapt, and overcome.

    Looking back, I think avoiding the dirty water hurt us. My buddy wanted to push further east, I wanted to go west, and never on my radar was to find line between chitty & chit water, NEVER. But now it is. I don’t like it, but I certainly didn’t like striking out either.

    I think doing more GED study on the area would’ve helped mapping out structure, i.e.- holes vs. flats vs. cuts and outlining them more clearly to transition from fishing holes/points in the morning cold to flats/ledges as the day progressed.

    I think we should do this again sometime.

    Take an area we know holds fish, hit it from different angles, and compare notes.

    Pain is the best teacher and I’d like a shot at r̶e̶v̶e̶n̶g̶e̶ redemption.
