You know I think fishing out of a toon is making me a better fisherman, it has Been 15 years since I have owned a boat. You have the ability to run and gun to find fish but when you are fishing out of a toon or tube you better choose your launching spots well. Because I didn't want to pack my toon up and relaunch from Juniper Point I made the 40 minute commute in my toon with a 4 HP Johnson motor and I will think twice about doing that again.
This year I have started keeping a fishing log of all my trips and including everything from water levels, water temps, air temps and moon phase. I am hopeful that these records will pay off in future trips, because after I returned home cleaned my fish, showered I was out like a light. I joked in an earlier post about being relegated to the couch, well it turned out my wife ended up on the couch because I was snoring to loud. I tend to saw some logs when I am over tired and I really was worn to a frazzled.
Fyi the fish tacos were absolutely fantastic and the family all loved them. Hopefully in the future I will have enough intel to launch in the right spots so I can save myself from myself if you know what I mean. I have never known when to quit and yesterday was a prime example for you have heard about "the man against the sea" well this was me vs the Devils Mistress and the only way she wins if I quit. So we had a 11 1/2 hour day on the water but I got my damned fish tacos, you be the judge on who one this battle but my vote goes to me but I may be slightly delusional.
