Grapevine 10-15-10

Took John and his crew of 7 out for a quick morning trip on the Vine this morning.  Started out a little before sunrise with the preacher getting cold.  He knew something was wrong when he stepped out of his truck and all the "wiser men" had on pants and coats....he had shorts and a fleece on.  The guys had a good time with him all morning!
This was the first trip in a while that Roe didn't bring his lucky girlfriend and I don't think we'll let him on the boat without her anymore because the bite was SLOW today.  We found fish every stop we made, but they were scattered fish on a no wind, blue bird day making the bites few and far between.
Tip of the day:  Burn 3 cranks, quarter second pause, burn 3 cranks, quarter second pause etc.
The fish did not want the typical up down of slabbing or hopped back from a cast.  We ended up finding the pattern and caught fish, but just not what this crew is use too.  We all had a great time and lots of ribbin' going on this morning.  John was confused on the Vine and was wondering why the sun was rising in the West :)  This group usually fishes at EM with me, but it's turning over right now.
John was joking about taking a pic for the blog so I took this when with a dink double :) In his right hand is another one the same size as the one on the fly!

Had a great time guys and look forward to our trips in March.  Roe, bring Whitney so she can fill the cooler for you guys.
