Low 70's at night, 98 during the day, wind came up about 11
Made the long run to the back of one of the arms in the dark
Started slow with a few on the fluke
Topwater continues to produce both quality and quantity - poppers, crawlers, frog, sammy.
Finished off with  few swimbait fish on the random boils mid lake.

Getting too hot for me, back to the bay until closing month at the Big B

Really enjoy throwing topwater with straight braid (10# nanofil) for ease of casting, distance, strength, no stretch ...until today.  
Massive blow up on the popper 3 feet from the tube.
Disaster struck

One of my favorite rods which I've caught hundreds of fish over the years  snapped like a twig. Shed a tear.

Sorry to hear about the broken rod. It definitely had a colorful history catching all those great fish! Too bad it gets so hot at Barrett. The fishing looks so fun!
