Hello losers! That's right, everyone, with the exception of junior net boy that isn't writing this right now, is a loser. That's because you didn't win the inaugural Thunder Rumble and we did! Junior net boy, Matt Werneke in for senior net boy Jim Gardner and I, never even made a cast on Thunder, yet we kicked everyone's ass! How do you say? Us older and more experienced fisherman, when confronted with the task of trying to figure out a new lake in just three short hours, have long known it's best to keep your bait wet and cover as much water as possible. You don't do that by seeing who can run from spot to spot the fastest like rabbits being chased by a fox, no, you take the turtle approach and troll. That's right, troll. It's a lost art on younger less experienced fisherman, but it's the cats ass when fishing new water to try and figure out where the fish are. You should try it sometime, and if you only use your trolling motor, you save a bundle on gas. Winning is great...I could get used to it real fast.
Speaking of winning, team Dickhead has held on to first place as team Asshole slipped to third. Mark and Luther have moved into second only six points behind the leaders, so this thing will come down to our last night I do believe.
From what I heard the night we fished Thunder, it sounds like we'll be going back next year as everyone seemed to like fishing it. It's a beautiful lake with plenty of undisturbed shoreline. Now if they would only grade the road to the landing every now and then!
North f'n Long is up next from 5:30-8:30 on the 27th, so I'll see you losers then.
