Went to JW Smith again and met a guy named Herman who was fishing on the bank. After talking with him I asked if he wanted to fish on the boat and he said... sure...cool! We had a great time talking but the fishing seemed to be a little slow so I decided to adventure out and fish a part of the lake that I've never fished before. The rocks looked liked they should be good so we gave em' a try. Realizing that I'm taking this total stranger out in my boat, I'm thinking that perhaps I can show him a thing or too ...especially since he's used to just fishing from the bank. I also would like to think that I have the advantage...especially since I'm in the front of the boat and operating the trolling motor. ;D ;D I'm throwing crank bait brand names like Yozuri, Rapala, lucky craft and etc. However, this young man took me to school today with his $2 wal mart crank bait and caught this hog! ...And the real cooker was that I got totally skunked ...I can't even remember when the last time that happened. I must say it was a great day on the water and boy I think I got as much out of the fish by netting it than he did catching it! Sikeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! I don't think so! ;D ;D ;D

Good looking fish! Your story reminds me of fishing with my Dad; I have the latest gear and the newest techniques, he could be fishing with a safety pin on the end of a Spider Man Zebco and still whip me.
