Hit eagle creek today at the butt crack of dawn for some silver action. I started out throwing eggs in the dark, but I kept gettin tangled in a damn tree since i couldn't hardly see anything. So after almost an hour of casting and either getting snagged or tangled up the sun finally showed, and the madness began. A few casts after switching up my gear and a big bruiser buck decided to take hold
. After 5 minutes of back and forth line peeling and a couple insane jumps he ran right into the branches of a fallen tree and after a minute or so came unbuttoned
. At this point i'm so pi**ed I can't see straight, so I took a brake from fishing crossed the creek and ripped off the branches he got tangled in. Next cast and it's fish on again. After a quick fight a little hen came in and got the shampoo
. The next cast and fish on again:dance:, but after a few headshakes he was gone. About 20 minutes latter and a nice fat chrome hen decides she want's to play to. She ended up running right back to where the first big buck did, but luckily I had gotten rid of the branches so she didn't get tangled and was able to land her. The next fish came in arse first so the line was cut and he wen't on his way. After that I lost one more at the bank due to a bent hook that I forgot to switch out and decided to call it quits. Hopefully the rain comes soon and it'll get even better
ray:. Good luck to you all.
