I decided to take the family out fishing yesterday for some relaxation. Michelle was going to meet me at the ramp with the kids, so I took the boat for a ride to check something before they got there. As I was idling out of the channel, I see this Champion in the reeds with his TM up. I asked if they were in the Open out of Mallets and they were.
I asked how they were doing and they responded, "Not so good."
Their new remote controlled foot pedal MG had died on them. So they had to just use the big motor to get near spots and fish it. I knew the feeling. So I told them about a spot for good smallies (nothing major, and not one of my money holes, but a good spot for them to cull up) and even told them what bait to throw. They didn't have any, so I gave them a bag. I even told them exactly how to fish it. So they went over.
I pick Michelle and the kids up and we went over to see how they were doing.
I pulled up and the guy in the back says, "Man, thanks a lot! I already pulled a 3+ lber out and on your bait."
Then as we're talking, he gets another good fish over 3 lbs.
As I'm puttering along, I see this nice 3 lber on a rock. So I threw out a marker buoy on it for them, and told them, "Hey, there's a nice fish right here, I'll get out of the way so you can fish him."
We had even talked about how we knew a lot of the same people. The driver was a licensed guide so I offered him some work, as I need more guides, and he said yes.
Cool, so I move a 1/4 mile off and go to shore with the kids to swim. Those two a-holes, took my marker buoy and left!
They took MY buoy. And like I'm not going to be able to figure out who they are???
I know 75% of the guys that fish that club. And I don't imagine there were too many guys fishing out of a blk and white champion bought so recently they hadn't switched over the registration from NY to VT, with a 225 EFI, and busted MG TM on the bow. I THINK I'll be able to find out who they are.
That's it, other than friends, I won't EVER give anyone tourney help again!!!
