OMG, everybody that owns a boat was on the water. We tried ledge fishing but the waves were crashing over the deck every 2 minutes making it impossible. Went back into the creeks but nothing seemed to be on wood either. So we headed to some docks sitting in 7' of water. The bite was on! We found one dock with about a dozen fish on it. Skipping Zoom green pumpkin shaky heads & green pumpkin Senko wacky rigs in there, the wife pulled out a Nice one.
What happened next I would have never expected. She flipped the bass into the boat, when it landed on the deck, it kicked and got the hook stuck into my foot. I grabbled the needle nose pliers and pulled it out. Standing there bleeding, I told her to get me a bandaid out of the first aid kit and went back to fishing. What I didn't notice was she opened the rod locker behind me. You know what happens next... I step back into the wide open compartment and SPLASH! Luckily it was 77º water! When things calmed down, we took a Picture
