LB Kitty Floatilla Report 7-8-06

[8incher]

Great day on the water. Good to meet other BFT members too. I headed out to Bird Island with three grandkids and we had a ball. Picked up a few pointers form TD on filleting -- gotta have one of those nuclear powered filleting knives-- and paid attention when TD and TB cooked up the fillets. Very good grub. Two grandsons had to leave for an ATV expedition with their parents just as the cooking oil was heating up. They were really bummed out when they had to miss the grub. We had filled up on fish and taters when I noticed my other grandson loading up a plate of fillets again. When I asked him why he wanted more he said they were so good he had to take some home to his mom and dad.

One observation... I noticed that every time we reeled in a nightcrawler baited hook the white bass would hit them. I'll bet we could have hammered them if we had taken the time to put on some silver. Gotta go back.

Thanks again to all who helped make it a nice trip.
