So who's braving the Memorial Day weekend?

Took NV out on the Suwannee. Spent some quality time swimming with the family on the sandbar on Sun. Spent a couple hours Monday pulled up in the lilly pads taking a siesta. The river was unusually quiet Monday, I was on a main artery behind hog island and only had a couple boats go past in about two hours. The fishing is less than stellar right now. I drowned a cricket and threw another off the hook, lost a third one in a tree, four or five died of starvation, I still had a 100 crickets at days end...Uncle went salt-water inshore and caught a trash can slam. Neighbors tried offshore, they were home early due to the strong winds..
Swimming was the sure bet, sandbar is minutes from the house. The Mercury 115 4stroke is an amazing little motor. I am liking it more and more.

BTW- My dad caught a catfish, GOOD KEEPER KIND, and a nice bluegill off the dock, he is doing great, rehabilitation progressing nicely.. This is the first holiday since last Easter dad wasn't in the hospital so we are so very thankful..
