I woulda been out there but I had a little eye procedure Thursday and I’m supposed to be taking it easy. I announced I was going. Wife made a big deal I was not. Normally not an issue but I agreed with her today.

On the distance I like to walk to my stands:

I thpught seriously about going to the dam this afternoon. Just couldnt bring myself to hook up the boat. I had a last minute trip planned to go late yesterday afternoon below the dam, but we ended up not going. I fished in MS last Thursday afternoon, Friday and Saturday morning. I was absolutely miserable.

I haven’t been out in like a month... too damn hot. I generally don’t fish in July and August. I’d rather be out there when it’s 30 degrees. That’s right

Ready to see the ground spewed up from a good hard frost. Me too!
I firmly believe that a double gallows should be constructed on the East Lawn of The White House. Politicians who willfully and shamelessly violate their oath to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States of America should be swiftly tried and, upon conviction, publicly hanged at sunup the day after conviction. If multiple convicts are to be hanged they can choose with whom to share the gallows or names shall be drawn from the hangman's hat to be hanged 2 at a time.

I love them bluegills. Bout a foot on tha bed...theyll pop up bed on and off all summer..but the bed sizes are usually smaller with less fish. You can find shellcrackers on the bed this time of year better than earlier in the year...you gottah look forem tho this time of year...anwhere from 1ft off the bank to probly a 100ft..want be more than 3-4ft and might not be there but a few days and they will move around sometimes but not far usually...they usually eat better this time of year also and best to fishem when the sun is good and high and theyll hammer a criket,worm,or keystone minner as soon as it hits the water...also if you find one bed theys probly a few more within a 100 yards of you😃

I been itching to go too, but if I do, it will be at night I went Friday night. Called it quits at 2am. Gar and drum were the only fish we caught. But with the full moon and cooler temps, it was nice just to sit and fish.

I do my best not to let summer time and summer heat keep me form fishing, I'm not a summer kind of person anymore though,,,since my heart attack it's dangerous for me if I can't get cooled off...I can hack it if there is a breeze blowing but let it be one of those no wind kind of hot summer days, I'll look for a spot that you can see has some wind on it... if I have my cool off kit ( Ice chest filled with ice and a med sized bath towel) I can dip the towel into the ice water throw the towel over my head and it keeps me fishing. If I didn't bring my cool off kit I can't hardly make it unless I can find a shady bank to get on....many times taking a quick boat ride can cool me off,, so I'll do some gunning and running,,,, It doesn't matter if the bass are biting good or not just being out there is what's important to me... If I'm going to kick the bucket any time soon I'd rather be doing something I love than to be sitting back at the house waiting for it...

I heard once you get too hot, it ruins your body to where your more easily overheated even years down the road. I dont know for certain. I hear in army one has to wear red ribbon on sleave for medics.

I hear in army one has to wear red ribbon on sleave for medics. In my early 20's , I was carted off the 17th green from heat stroke. 40 years later the heat still effects me. That's why it takes me over 4 hours to do lawn work in August.

If you can stand it, cause it's kinda weird. Up above the dam get in the water on a sandy bank and swim under the mats and grab small mussels off the bottom and throw them in the boat. When crawl back I'm put them in a bucket with a little water. They make fantastic catfish bait above the dam.
LUCK:::; When presistence, dedication, perspiration and preparation meet up with opportunity!!!

I loaded everything up. Put boat in water. Wouldnt crank and run good. Loade back up and retreated. Its never given me trouble before. Now i gotta diagnose and repair it tonight or asap.
Atleast it happened at dittos ramp instead of out on the river 10 miles away.
