Western Bass Club

I Just got back from Florida and I have to say Ed Shinkle is an awsome guide, He took my dad and me out to Rodman Resevoir and he immedaitly put 6 quality fish in the boat in the first hour out, one of which was a Nice 6.8lb Lg mouth. (Pictures to Follow) My dad caught his first fish ever a decient 1.8lb lg mouth and I ended up getting 4 nice keepers.
All in All we ended up with about 18 fish in 2 1/2 hours, there where even a couple of times then it started getting to warm and the bite shut down.

We really had a great time with Ed and I know My dad will never forget the time we spent together,

A time I to will charish, Thank you ED!

The rest of my time down there we fished St. john's River and Lake Monroe with limited success. Fishing from the bank puts a whole new twist on Bass fishing, Esspecially when you throw 14ft Gators in the mix.

however if you ever want to catch a hundred or so Blue gill and other assorted sunfish grab your ultra light gear and a loaf of bread or a bucket of worms and hit the little ponds.

I have to make a clarification: ED Caught the big one and I will put pictures out later this week, ED is doing great and has been busy using his scroll saw. I might add that he is doing an awsome job making things

He was doing great when I visited him in April. In fact he claimed everything concerning his health was overstated. Smitty
