A bass on the tube Finchaser made for me. The cool thing about this tube was that he put the weight inside the top of the tube to make it more streamlined. He also put circle hooks on them. Every bass I got on this tube hooked itself in the corner of it's mouth. This made for a quick and easy C&R. :thumbsup:

One of the red translucent tubes I already had. This is a 23" tube. I had a 1 oz weight on this, and a 3/4 oz on the black tube, about 15".

Fished last night in the yak trying to get a jump on the forecast Earl bad weather conditions. Got 4 bass 24-26" on the T&W before it got dark, then spent a few hours playing with slab porgies to 14".

Quick trip 9-6-10 Labor Day
I took Pebbles for a quick yak trip today before all the Holiday boaters and fishermen would be out there. It was a little too sunny and I think extra traffic put the fish off the bite.

She still managed 3 bass on the T&W, on one of Finchaser's tubes.
We only had time to fish 2 hours of the ebb. The tide was pretty high today, we passed through some nice water. I wanted to take her to a good spot 2 miles away, but today we tried an experiment and put 2 of us on a 1 person Hobie. :scared:
I didn't want to chance it with a long trip and have us dump the yak. The last 2 times I had her out, we've been in storm or high wind situations, and pushed her boundaries. She's a brave girl, but I want to keep her interested without putting her in danger. :kiss: So today we hung close to the launch spot, traveling at most a mile round-trip.
It seemed that even though we trolled a productive area, lots of bait and rocky bottom, I couldn't find a fish for her. I was getting a little embarassed as I promised her a fish.
Murphy's Laws of Fishing....never promise anyone a fish, no matter how good the fishing has been, unless you like embarassing yourself. :o

After an hour of trolling the T&W, a 22" bass hit her T&W. Mission accomplished, everything is easier after you hit the first one. :lookhappy:
