A Day of Infamy

This morning is the first time I’ve gone out in a few days due to the rains, wind and me catching up on some much-needed sleep.  It *seemed* like a perfect morning…I was armed with my newly-arrived KVD tournament series spinnerbaits, there was no wind, no current, not a hint of rain in the air and the water was still and not too stained.  Plus, it’s Friday, right?  Lock and load, right?

It’s with a heavy heart that I post the above, my first skunk pic of 2010.  Yes, my fellow fishermen, it was a sad day indeed for the home team.  Not even a dink.  Not a single bite…not even a snag or rock that remotely felt like a bite.  Zip. Nada.  You get the picture.  I tried 4 and 5-inch Senkos and spinnerbaits (KVD tournament-series spinnerbaits at that!!!) and I walked away feeling like Charlie Brown at Halloween.  Good thing I’m a Cleveland Indians/Cavaliers/Browns fan because I got it down, “There’s always next time.”
