Boat under repair, work on the farm, vacation, and long work hours have all contributed to my recent lack of fishing. My son and I recently took a short, early morning, bank fishing trip. We started fishing in the tailrace below Wheeler Dam. We fished with several artificial lures and redworms and only caught one small largemouth.
We changed to fishing a small cove and my son caught several small bream to finish our fishing trip. We didn't catch a lot of fish but we did have a good time enjoying the great outdoors. We did have an encounter with a house cat while getting a snack at the Dam Store located near Wheeler Dam. We left the window down while getting our snack and came back to find a cat had jumped in our truck due to the smell of our worms in the front seat. To say I was startled when I opened the door and the cat jumped out of the truck. My son and I had a good laugh at my reaction to the cat flashing by me unexpectedly.
It just goes to show that you never know what is going to happen on trip to the great outdoors.
This blog is dedicated to the great outdoors. It is named in honor of Spring Creek located in North Alabma where many outdoor experiences are available for people that enjoy the great outdoors.
