FALL HAS ARRIVED

           

Harry, Herb and I on July 8th.  To me, sunrise is the single most precious time of the day. Trolling motor cable snapped at 11...a boat is just a BIG hole in the water we throw money into!

 

           

A Janus Picnic...Before the picnic the GWOT team did a little recon of the lake.  One spot, one bait FIVE species:  Bass, White Bass, Perch, Blue Gill (2) and Gar! Can you tell that Gary's wife is on the West Coast? <VBG>

               

Herb is my next door neighbor. We hit the lake at dawn and got off at noon.  No sense being on the water with the holiday crazies!

           

           

Jim & Harry (both retired Signal Corps) took me fishing on one of the most beautiful days of the year. We didn't catch any big ones but we had a super time!

   

First time on the water.  caught a few fish, drove around a bunch.  This is a very nice lake!

John Sparks is another excellent guide on Fayette. He picks up my trips when I cannot go.  Here we have Mark and his day and a good day of fishing. 

           

           

   

Had a nice father & son on Sunday. Both just beginning to fish.  We had a great time, they learned a bunch and in spite of the post-frontal conditions and a wind to 25 mph we caught about 10-12 fish.

       

Joseph and I had a better day, two days later even though it was a WET day!

           

   

Michael and I worked HARD for the few fish we caught on this day!

    The Osprey had better luck!

Jon Goff, another forum member and two co-workers (Kelly & Becka) along with a client from Colorado (Josh) fished with John Sparks and I on this post-frontal day and had a great time on the lake.

I am going to start the last two days of 2005 and New Year's Day

New Year's Day brought high winds and a Blue Bird Sky.  It also brought three very good fisherman and a great time. Ken Cummings is an Outfitter in Montana (Click here for his website).  His brother in law (Josh) and Father in Law (David) took him fishing! <g>  Note the last picture.  We caught over 35 fish but the smallest was the last! <G>

              

       

Wendell and Keith had a great time on a tough fishing day

   

Friday BassFishingWorld.com held a "Small Brawl" on the lake. Here we have some shots of the awards lunch at Orsaks in Fayetteville.
