Today it was raining...the kind of rain old timey sayings are constructed from..."frog strangler", "gulley washer", "chicken turd floater" came to mind and held there throughout the hunt...at least it was a warm rain!
So I hit a place close to home, got straight naked and put on the wetsuit at the boatramp right out in front of God and everybody, (hint, keep your socks on for speedy entry) visibility onshore was about 20'...the rain had the lake roiled up so a fellow couldnt see the coil... In I went with the Pro set on 'stun' and the blue headphones.
Started hitting and getting, it wasnt too long before the headset filled up with water and sort of muted itself as if I was diving...had to keep shaking my head, or hop on one foot and dump the water out to get those crisp pings back...must have looked like I was having a seizure, for I deserved it.. .shotgun shells, tabs, sinkers, coins and the like...Then the wind came up and brothers, I was soaked through and through and it was cold! I went back to Rosie and checked time, only been in for a little over an hour, but decided to call it, "thats enough of being a man for one day"...[attachment 301077 oct1414.jpg]
I left my glasses in the car so I had no idea what I had harvested until I got home...got a bit of silver I did! As Leslie would say, "Lord love a duck and the AtPro!"[attachment 301078 oct1414-1.jpg]
