*fishing report- np caught 3 channels in the 4-5 pound range. The large flatheads seem go into hiding on the weekends where we fish. There's just to much boat traffic and I believe they just hunker down and cover their ears. I hope we are able to catch a large flatty one evening this week. We have had some sickness with several family members, so our concerns are more with them than our catch at the moment. We wish them a speedy recover, so we all can celebrate the "4th" together.
Our family beach trip is only a few weeks away. I'm already looking forward to it. This will be our shrimping year. Call us the 2007 Topsail Beach Bubba Gump Shrimp Company We now have two 8 ft cast nets and lot of other 4-6 nets. Last year we taught my step nieces how to throw a net. I think we might add several others to this years fleet. This was a lot fun and we should catch a lot more shrimp this year.
I've been practicing up some on my horseshoes. My Dad, brother and nephews throw all the time at the beach. I was never good at it, so I didn't throw, I just watched. Last year I threw a some. This year I decided to improve my attitude about my game, so I've practiced a few times(2). Right now I'm averaging one ringer for ever 300 throws. When I told my brother about how I was doing, the SA sent me an email back saying "that's an improvement for you". I would love to beat him just once this year, then I could quit. I know if my brother read this post, he would say "you have better odds at winning the lottery".
