It’s been an on, off, North, South, windy week. Rain on and off, wind north and south at the same time. 2 pine trees down within 10 feet of each other, one pointed north and the other pointed south.
The Jack Wingate Thursday Night Big Fish Tournament out of Wingate’s Lunker Lodge and hosted by the Hydrilla Gnats Bass Club only drew 10 boats this past week. Clint Brown won it with a big fish of 5.77 lbs. I guess we can blame it on Storm Fay, dang it would have been trouble if it had made up to a hurricane. Now as I write this, I am under rain clouds of Gustav. From here to Galveston is a fur piece.
When WWII ended, a great American said this, “We must build a far better world, one in which the dignity of man is respected,” Harry Truman, great man.
All through the week when boats could go out, Bream, Shellcrackers and Crappie has been taken.
The Sammy Gray YMCA Tournament drew 38 boats and had 10 bags of fish over 17 lbs. For a 5 fish limit in flood waters, that’s not a bad tournament of fish. Jordan/Jordan took 1st place with 23.95 lbs., Stevens / Lawrence took 2nd place with 22. lbs. 3rd Place was 19 lbs. Big Fish was 7 lbs. Great tournament!
