6/10 and 6/11 2020 headed across the big pond for some shore fishing for walleyes and catfish with scott and erik joining me in the mornings and alayna in the evenings. been slow for me but did lose 2 eyes today to the 20 mph wind and rocks. alayna had a good night last night catching 2 sheephead one was greenish blue never seen anything like it. she also had 2 hits that almost pulled the rods out i had good size rocks on cork handle and drag pretty much open but noone home. i had to buy a light cooler for my sandwiches and drinks so i found what i was looking for at wal mart. has wheel on it and perfect size since my restrictions consist of no lifting and strenous work. well alyana like it so much i had to buy her one and got her fishy2 stickers for the top like mine has a fishy1 sticker. ill see if chawk can post pic for me.

6/13/2020 qmd 6/14/2020 headed south little with alayna (fishy2) for some shore fishing for catfish and bowfins. saturday morning started out unreal almost lost 2 rods to big catfish. ist one bail was open but pulled so hard and fast went flying off stick and heading into water got there just in time. none home home though dropped bait. the 10 minutes later alayna and i were working on new line on a reel when i heard a noise and said oh oh there goes our worm rod into the water but didnt go only about 6 feet out in the 8 inch deep water. well i know why he broke it off took alot of line ugh. then for the next 2 hours alayna was 4 for 11.
sunday morning slow start for fishy2 landed one bowfin then for the next 2 hours 2 bumps. then it happened the rod in closest with no runs in 2 days took off slowly and alayna closed the bail to see if there was weight on it and said yes papa set the hook then and she did and the battle began alayna lands a 9.35 lb bowfin took some pics heard a noise there was the other cat rod screaming line out i told alayna close the bail dont let it go to far out its a cat she closed the bail and fish on now to get it in through the heavy weeds and lily pads. she lifted the rod again and again but after good fight she got it in a 32 inch 15 lb plus fat cat. then the worm rod took off and she lands a pickeral. told her one more different species and she will have a grand slam. tossed out the cat rod turned around and the other was going again she lands a bowfin. looked at alayna said you pooped papa out. time to call dad and weigh your bowfin in for the basin derby. alayna was 4 for 7 today.
told alayna today was her last day fishing solo this week coming and fathers day derby ill be fishing with 2 cat rods right beside her. you earned fishy2 had several people comment last 2 days no other kids that age would never have pulled those fish in those weeds without help. at least 8 people took pics. now i will fish with my 2 rods right along side of you. im hoping chawk can post some pics now.

6/20/2020-6/22/2020 fathers day derby was kind of slow after ist day as water got way to warm for shore fishing but we still did well. cooked ho dogs and marshmellows on a wood fire fishy2 fishing with me on shore and our friends jason and noah in boat a little out in front of us. ist day and noah had at least 25 runs alayna and i maybe 12. but jason weighed in a bowfin and a 21.78 catfish . then it got slow as i got hotter. sunday we caught a few fish i landed some bowfins and fishy2 also. then came monday last day and very hot. we got there at 5;15 am as jason needed to leave by noon. i stayed on shore and fishy2 went out in boat with jason. well it was very slow water to warm but i had a run and lost a catfish. somewhere around 7:30 am i saw a big catfish head appear in one foot of water saw me and spooked. so around 10 am told jason to paddle in slowly i think the head was a female on her nest. he came in slowly i pointed where and there she was. told alayna use the catfish rod with heaviest line because your only going to have 2 foot of line out and she is going to run your drag inot the heavy weeds and bury herself. fishy2 says she wont bite papa i said yes she will hit her in the back or head with the cut bait and she did and fish on thought it was going to pull her out of the boat but then she got in trouble headed right to thick weeds and buried herself told fishy2 keep pressure on her by holding the line and lifting. it worked came out screaming pulling the 15 foot boat around in a circle almost dumping fishy2 and jason into the lake no fear less than 3 fow. dont know how long it went on but it seemed forever. took pics and nothing came out. should have videod it fishy2 weighed it in the derby 18.7 lbs 34 inches and didnt even place in the top ten childrens division. left a sour note with our family and others broke her heart not one catfish made the top 10. lci need to get better at the childrens division and im not going to say why on here .working on some pics.

6/29/2020 been shore fishing for catfish and bowfins with fishy2 the last 3 or 4 days and the fish are turning on again . hard to land but still lots of fun with heavy weeds and low water. we have landed some nice fish but lost more than we landed and even got broke off. this morning i fished for little under an hour with the north wind blowing the weeds on top of my line and fishing was non existant. but before my 2nd rod was in my stick and rod fell down picked it up put stick back in ground but my line was stiff so thinking it was weeds pulled on it and it pulled back set the hook and fish on. fighting the fish and weeds but did manage to get it in but when i saw it i immediatly went for the net i had on a huge bowfin probably the biggest i ever l had on. being solo and fighting waves and weeds got it into net but it did now like it busted out of it and broke me off. after looking at my line it looked like he bit it off. got home and told fishy2 and she said we will find it after the rain. :D
