Morning Unca Walt, Hippie and all the Island Of Misfits. Getting ready to spend the morning in the kitchen before it get hot going to hit 90's today. :)
Wowza!

51F @ 64% RH, more rain, and predicted to reach 57F.

I manufactured and installed a 10' length of trim yesterday using a router and table saw. Sadly no one locally had that circa 1927 profile in stock............Of course after gluing and screwing it in place, I was out of the correct stucco caulking, so will go back and do that today, and wait for a dry day to paint it.

One of my neighbor's whole family is down with Covid, but thus far with only mild symptoms.
 
Stinking Bass is a good thing compared to catfish right?
Well when it seem that all you can catch is bass. It gets a little boring... Was trying just to catch catfish and kept catching bass on cut bait. You wouldn't think bass would eat cut up crappie but they do. Even caught bass on cut up bass, I can catch a boat load of bass when I just fish for them. But when I fish for perch, crappie, cats. I catch more bass than the target fish. I've started to toss the bass on the banks for the critters in ponds overloaded with them. The bass get stunted when there is to many in a pond. It's just good management.

Not me. I try and eat as many veggies as I can. But, I also like most all food. I just don't kill anything. Mrs Pute trained me.
I was like that at my place in Georgia. We stocked our new pond with catfish and brim (Georgia Giants) We never ate the fish as I became close to them and couldn’t But we let others fish and keep any that were not pregnant. I now see pictures on Facebook of the giant catfish and Brim they catch and eat for dinner each week. 😊 This is one of the pics the new owner posted. Their kids love the pond they swim in it and we did too

No catfish just stinking bass. One was even on cut bait. All caught in 30 minutes. Didn't go the big cat pond. The path was a little to muddy.View attachment 295940View attachment 295941View attachment 295942View attachment 295943View attachment 295944View attachment 295945View attachment 295940

Love your set up stain what time did you go, I have a new tackle box two at that and two poles we got for Xmas one year and have put them in water yet. I'm going to make this happen sooner or later. Thanks for the inspiration.:cool:
