Posse

With last night's success, it was a foregone conclusion I'd be out again tonight.  It was an easy sell too..."hand cramp" from so many fish isn't a bad pitch.

JH, RS, JP and later, Mr. T all waded out and started firing streamers into the evening water.

JH hooked up first and then RS.  JP followed shortly before JH and RS each hoked their second.
The light was still bright and I couldn't help but notice that the bite was early and also that I was the only chump who hadn't hooked up...

It turned out to be decent night, not blisteringly good , but everybody caught and released fish.

RS and JP took leave about the time that Mr T showed up in shorts and wet waded into the darkening water.  The three of us, JH, Mr. T and I fished to splashes in the darkness and the combination of short strikes and auditory confirmation of our quarry kept us out until almost 11:00 o'clock.

This was a special night.... not because the fishing was noteworthy, but because 5 guys rallied around a common interest and had a hell of a good time.

It was like white bass poker night.
