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.

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.

I was hoping to go Sunday. But The Boss said something about this being our 24th anniversary.

Sometimes you gotta get your priorities straight. 🤣

I didn't want to play with the wakeboats and jet fleas, so I went creek fishing on Saturday. Using cut bait, I caught and released a nice bunch of channel cats. Nice to just sit on the bank, in the shade, and just fish.

The boys caught a few out of the canoe on the Cahaba yesterday.

That looks like a fun day ^^^^^

It was pretty hot today to me. And all weekend.

We hit tenn river this evening. Way down river on wheeler. Used a backroad ramp in the sticks. Saw the law patrolling the ramp and back roads in morgan county. Saw the marine police boat posted up in the channel across from ditto landings harbor. Lots of tubers and jet fleas about. Few fishermen too. We launched at johnsons landing and test run a little mariner 15hp on my 14/48. Its an 80s motor with about 10hrs on it. She might hit 10mph lol. Its my backup. Backup is goin bye bye asap! I love havin the river here. Man at the acres to fish!
