News For Port Loring

Quiet day today, not much movement up and down the highway.  All the travelers that were on the roads have made it to their destination and is resting up for the coming week, I suspect.  Can’t say I rightly blame them neither.  Yesterday I took our Giesler boat out with my lovely wife and have to say it sure was pretty out there.  I didn’t get any fish though but did  hook on one nice one.  Didn’t have it hooked good enough I guess and as it flipped itself out of the water, it shook the hook right out of its mouth.  If there is anyone that has ways of that not happening let me know, as have lost a lot of fish that way lately.  Thinking my hook is to large or something that is on the lure I am using.  Maybe get to changing that.  At any rate, we had a great afternoon let me tell ya. Sunshine on ones back, calm water with s light breeze, taking in all the smells and surrounded by nothing but what nature has to offer.  That is what life is all about.  Well tea time here my friends so have a great day.  Oh with the bug report, the Black Flies and Mosquito’s weren’t bad at all out there on the water yesterday.
