I was out last night and got skunked!! To make matters worse, I woke up this morning to a practical prankster who thought it was funny to put paper and glue on my window mad.gif

Well... the skunking part is a part of flathead catfishing. The paper & glue on your windshield shouldn't be! That sucks! I'm guessing a good adhesive remover or WD-40 and some elbow grease and you'll get it off rather painlessly.

To be honest, I got skunked last night as well and I was fishing with some real good company again. "I Da Man" BrianK invited me down to Pool 3 to do some "exploring" as he put it. He hasn't been on that water for a little while now and had to get reacquainted with the flathead bite.

Brian ended up with 1 small channel, 2 small flatheads, and a pretty angry softshell turtle! I was telling him earlier in the night that I would love to catch a snapping turtle someday but we both wanted nothing to do with the softshell.

We tried some new spots, 1 of which looked amazing, and caught 1 of the small flatheads from that spot.

Lost track of time and didn't get home until 4am. Ooops!

Did that happen while you were parked at your fishin spot? That sucks but at least its not a broken anntenna or a broken window.

no, no, this was on the street down from my house.. the cities been improving our roads and today they're suppose to pour new entry ways for our drive ways so we have to park our cars down the street.. Well, someone though it would be funny to put glue and paper on my window.. Funny because my car was between 2 other cars. Also, I know that its a neighbor because I was able to take the letter off and it was a notice from the city about the road resurfacing etc.. gotta love little kids and pranks.. In this case, I think it was the adults that did it though. Also, my front left tire was flat and my rear right tire was flat. Turns out, someone put a hole in the front left tire and cracked my rim on my rear right.. needless to say, I filed a police report because I fear that this will only get worse before it gets better

We just reached over the boat and grabed the bottle that had a nice channel attatched and was trying to flee downstream...first time for everything i guess haha

Pranks like that end up in disaster. And they wonder why ppl get crazy and do crazy stuff. I hate people that don't respect others or their property. I feel you webwarrior! I got skunked too. I was out on the croix and of course didn't get much. My buddie's dad was with us...he literally had every fish there. Everything from white bass, walleye, 2 x 5lb channel, and even a fat buffalo. I had nibbles, nibbles, and more nibbles. So I deceided to pack up my cooler full of mooneye for future cat trips. I even managed to pull in a softshell turtle. Also very angry. I'll get that guy up here later today. grin.gif

I saw that happen once. I found a MD bottle the seemed to be bobbing oddly in the water. I snagged it and pulled in about a 2# or 3# channel. It wasn't hooked though. Some (Contact Us Please) thought it would be funny to tie the cat to the bottle. He must have been on there a few days because it looked really sore.

Sorry to break off the subject there. When I read that, this story popped into my head.
