Merrill Creek Mon May 28th Report !
« on: May 29, 2012, 07:36:29 AM »
Met my Friend Steve in Riverdale at 4:15 am.

1st stop B & B in Stanhope for Herring.

Arrived at Merrill Creek Launch ramp at 5:50 am.

We were the 1st Boat that Launched   t^

Steve set us up on the 1st drift & I missed 5 Bites in a row   nosmly

The 6th Bite I landed a 24" Laker

Went back on the same drift and missed a few others.

Next drift Steve hooked up with a 16" Brown  t^

The 4th drift the bite died so we made a move & anchored up.

A few stockies were boated & it started getting hot.

Saw Fishon1982 (aka Robbie) trolling around.

At 12 noon we called it a Day.

Not a bad way to Spend a Monday morning !!

Good times always on the 16 Ft Monark  TT^

Its better to sit in a boat and think about God, than to sit in a church and think about fishing.

It is to be observed that 'angling' is the name given to fishing by people who can't fish.

Fishing, with me, has always been an excuse to drink in the daytime.
