I actually saw you land on the shores webcam. Way to go, how exciting!!!!! It looked like a lot of guys got skunked. True???? TP

I think it's a matter of perspective and positioning. Where I was yesterday,
there were plenty of hook-ups.

Today, was a different story. I wasn't in the right spot and ended up with a
single rat yellow at 29lbs. lol

Nice Dave!! Got me by 4 oz.

wavster · 02-20-2008, 06:05 PM

Actually, it was 0.4lbs. which equates to 6.4 oz...but we both can be happy with those fish.

I was all smiles yesterday and I can only think of one way that yesterday
would have been any better...

...a nice piece of butt - a 40lb. 'butt.

Beautiful fish, congrats!

No JP, but still some serious WCW pointage.

I hear you're in WSB jackpot now... A day late, $20 short.

I know. I didn't have the confidence last year to enter that jackpot. Not that
I'm an expert now, but last year it took me a while before I could find one.

We still have just shy of 3 months of WCW 2007, so I'm on a mission...

Great fish, its very big............

Great ghost - congratulations.

Good call on "paddling away" from the crowd to get bit, I think yakkers spreading out will help the fish landing ratio and general bumper-boat issues.

Where's

Good job Dave. I tried staying away from the herd today, but it didn't work for me.
