Fishing Weekend
We fished Friday from New Bern up the Neuse River past Highway 43, exploring new territory but with poor results. Came down the river to Upper Broad Creek and fished all the way to the end. passed an interesting guy anchored in the middle of the creek, slowed to a crawl and asked him as we went by if he was having any luck. His reply was "well not now......................................................." We wished him good luck in the insane asylum and moved on.
Saturday we went back to New Bern and tried to find some trout down the river as I saw on TV (begin inserting your jokes here) Went up Hancock and Slocum Creeks, good time but no fish. Came back to new Bern and tried around the bridges and trestles to no avail.
That night a dry front came through and we awoke to high winds and much colder temperatures. We tried in the Turning Basin and found lots of obliging dogfish but little else. We decided to come in early, Bobby took off for Durham and the day turned into a beauty. Should have gone back out.
Beer and food stock levels are at an all time low; we hada great weekend regardless.
But I can leave you with a little film from the weekend before when I had the pleasure of taking the Owner out for a little cruise. Always enjoy seeing the dolphins swimming.
Off for St Louis Tuesday, working a show in Branson MO (my dad says it's just like Las Vegas......if you're Ned Flanders) meeting with Emerson Friday, home late Friday night, wedding in New Bern Saturday afternoon, then off to DC that night for AHRI business through Tuesday, meetings in MD afterwards, then back home, and maybe a chance to go to Charlotte that Thursday. Here's a hint, when was the last time Tiger, Phil and I all got together?
Behave yourself
