Thumbs up Cumberland River

Had no intention of fishing today. Had coffee in bed with my lovely wife and then a late breakfast. Then I walked out to the boat still hooked up from yesterday and had an anxiety attack. Dispatched wifey to make sandwiches and caught some bait. Same as yesterday only better, had seven baits, caught six fish brought a bait home. They hit at 1400 and quit at 1800, same as yesterday. Had 5 fish from 18 to 25 lbs and topped it off with a thirty five lber. Released all in good shape yesterday and today but the 18 lber had undergone a medical procedure before he was released and will show up on the table tomorrow. Old sailor is hot ! Perhaps a Jamesons on the rocks is in order. Ummmmmm

Great fish Old Sailor! This sure makes me anxious to be chasing those guys! Man I wish I had a boat!

You sure have things figured out! Well done. I am very happy to see you still getting so worked up about catching big fish, even though you have already caught many! Once that adrenaline rush goes away, I will probably quit fishing. But I strongly believe it never will! Awesome work!

Those sure were some nice BIG BELLIES! Looks like they've been gorging themselves on the stockers.

I don't have a scale but I don't think I've ever caught one bigger then ten lbs. All I can say is keep at it!

Those fish were in 12 ft of water and super agressive . I missed a fish, lost a fish, and caught a fish all on same bait.

Too bad about your boat, I've got some trips promised and after I fulfill those I will give you a shout to see if we can "hook up." pun intended

You probably need to take the Snorkster fishing and try to make amends with him, let him see your good side. (Uh, there is one, right?)

Only when I'm fishing. Check out this beauty! Some of those fish were leaking sperm along side boat!
