Today didn't go as well as I had hoped. To start off, I forgot to fix the transducer yesterday, so I had to fix it this morning. I drilled some holes and zip tied some things and it was good. That fix lasted about an hour before I ripped it off on something else. Luckily I brought everything to fix it out in the boat and did an on-water repair; it's as good as new! It was another sunny, warm day but the fishing wasn't near as good. We fished a few places where I did well last year and only got one bite. The only place I caught any fish today was in one particular grass mat in Mattawoman creek; I caught 3 fish and Dusty missed one all within 5 minutes. Other than that it was an uneventful day. We did see a 10 point buck about 10 yards from us today. We snuck right up on him with the minn kota. Dusty said we were so close he could have thrown an arrow at it and took it down. The plan for tomorrow is to go back up north and expand on the pattern we found the first day. I think If I can find 2 more good areas I have a chance at making the cut again.
