Took Martie fishing this morning early, left the house just after 5 and was in the water at 5;45.<br />Fished form then &#39;till about 7:30 in one place and only caught 5 or 6. Then went<br />down river and hit a couple docks. Caught 12 more there. They were hitting bleeding shad<br />and crystal shad with and without the tail dipped. We left the docks at 9:30 when the rain just got<br />too hard. It had rained the whole time. Only had an old yellow raincoat and Martie only had a thin <br />poncho so by then we were pretty well soaked, emoRedface <br />Sure hated to leave fish biting!
It rained the whole time but by 9:30 it was coming<br />down pretty hard. It wasn&#39;t raining here when we left and isn&#39;t raining here now, just on the lake.<br />I&#39;m not sure the weather man was on today. I didn&#39;t even see any rain showing up in our area<br />on the internet when we were gettin&#39; ready to leave for the lake emoScratch Gotta get some<br />good rain gear, emoRain <br />It was 70* air temp and raining with a lite breeze out of the NW. Water temp was 78*. Most bites<br />came on a 6 count today, emoFish
