Fished One Day Report
Hi everyone, thanks for reading the fished one day report.
Monday- I’d been procrastinating about changing the lower unit gear oil and water pump impeller in the 8 hp Mercury that pushes the Bang-O-Craft. Based on Monday’s weather forecast, I decided to get it done. The job went fairly smoothly.
I took the vessel for a test drive out of CS Lee park on the St. Johns. It ran well. Back at the ramp I met a gentleman who seemed eager to talk about his day. “I got four catfish, two 25-pounders.” he said. “Whatchya getimon?” I wanted to know. “Saltwater shrimp,” he said. The day was not very pretty- I was glad he had some fish to show for his efforts.
Tuesday it rained much of the day, stayed home. Wednesday I had to wait here for a delivery. My new books came!
Thursday I went kayak fishing in the IRL. Did not touch a fish with the fly rod, but got a snook and a trout on a 3″ DOA Shrimp.
Friday the Eye Clinic at the VAMC at Lake Baldwin performed a cataract surgery on my right eye. Things seem to be going well, although I’m sure there will be an adjustment period.
My daughter-in-law Catalina texted me – “I would make an eye pun but I don’t want to be any cornea than I already am.”
Son Maxx texted me – “I think you should paint that eyepatch black and then give it a little skull and crossbones.”
Such comedians I have!
Because of the surgery I will not be fishing this week. No report next week.
That’s the fished one day report. Thanks for reading!
Every day is a blessing. Don’t waste it- Go fishing! Go paddling! Take a walk! Stay active! Take care of your eyes!
