Nice crankbait Tad.  Someone was probably sad to loose that.

I got cold just watching you get in that water. Brrrrrrr!  I hear the trout are really starting to turn on around the Dam, but have been hit and miss around Jones Valley. 

Lets see what the weather does next week and I will show you some bass tricks.  It is usually a "sure" thing, but you knwo how that goes. 

Glad you are getting out!  Your videos are giving me the itch.  Your kayak sure has come a long way as well.  You are fishing machine!

Looks like a Bomber crankbait, maybe a Poe's.  Nice color for muddy water.

That water looks very COLD!

Hope you get some fish next time out.

Thanks for the report.  Vids are so cool.  That's most definately a dd22 by normans about six bucks.  I've got about fifty of them as it's one of my favorite baits.

You have bigger stones than I have for getting in that water on purpose.

Although I doubt they were bigger when you stepped out... :smt044
The fishing was so good I thought I was there yesterday!
