Sweet dreams are made of this...LOL!
T-man, nice report, wishin' I was fishin', too. It's been more than a month since I've been able to get out, and that D**N "honey do" list ain't gettin' shorter.
Oh well, maybe Monday. (Not too friggin' likely ).
I am absolutely GREEN with envy and glad you HAMMERED them! I'll NEVER see a day like that from the surf, even in my kid's, kids' lifetimes!

Holy Moly I'm sitting here listening to the rain pour down outside. Supposed to go this morning but I'm not sure with this weather. What a day you all had. Congrats to all.
If there are fish to catch. I'll be there to my end.

All I can say is ...OH my freakin god! My arms are killing me this morning.
I started my day on Friday about 1:00am. Got in the car and headed south for 250 miles to meet up with Blaine.Met Blaine and we got on the water about 6:00am. Got a little bait and headed out.Then all hell broke loose. When Blaine dropped his 1st bait and was hooked up before I even got my shad on the the hook, I was thinking "here we go" I never figured it would be like it was. To see the pod of 40" + fish follow Blaine's 1st fish in was amazing. When the shad fell off his line those bass just exploded in the water. The rest is kind of a blur. We had doubles on so many times I lost count. When one of us hooked up, within 10-15 seconds the other was too. It seemed the bass were sorted by size, since the doubles were usually twins. I know we had double 46" and the double 50" but other then that I can't remember much. We also lost a few fish too. I had 2 break offs. One that took a screaming run under Bennet's boat (thanks for moving your lines guys. ) but it snapped my leader. Then I had another break me off in the rocks.
IT was a truely amazing day. Thank you Blaine for having me down. I could not have asked for a better day. It was also great to meet T-man, Frank, Jon H and his better half, and Bennet.
Wow...what a day. I'm sitting here with sore muscles, hands and arms that are cut up beyond belief, sunburn, and a big smile. A day like that is good...being able to spend it with friends is priceless.
