We did manage to squeeze in a couple of fishing days between working on the boat, condo, and happy hour :) It was VERY slow...... The last day we happened upon what we thought would be (in the words of our favorite charter boat captain...Skip Bradeen) that "magical piece of debris"....a floating bucket! We trolled by it a half a dozen times....NOTHING! CTM suggested I back up to it so he could do some spooning! For those of you who have been out with us you know I HATE to back up to ANYTHING. It is ALWAYS a fight...."CJM, you're too close!" "CJM, you're gonna run over the damned bucket!" "CJM, how do you expect me to drop a spoon by the bucket when you are so far away?" This is just a SMALL sample of our "bucket dialogue!" Since we had caught NOTHING so far I gave in and backed up to the darned thing :( Actually I did a pretty darned good job if I do say so myself :) CTM did some spoonin' and again NOTHING! Since it didn't produce any fish here is our catch for the day.....
As CTM says, "You can never have too many buckets." So we took it home! Fishing report for the day....A BUCKET AND A BUZZ! Catch you on the flip flop....
