April 5th and 6th Chouteau Bend

 For a weekend project I had two of my brothers come down to go sandbass fishing at Chouteau Bend. Jim (the oldest of the 2) brought his wife down with him and they brought a young lady by the name of Valerie. ( more to come on Valerie ) We splashed the boat at 8 am Friday morning and we were off looking for sandies. It took a few stops to zero in on them but when we did it was some fast action. It took Bill a few misses to get the hang of it but he came on strong after that. Jim had been with me several times in past years and was a pro at it. The only thing when he caught a fish it seem to fine the anchor rope ALOT. Now back to Valerie. This young lady had never been in a boat before let alone fish out of one. Valerie got the hang of this fishing thing very quick. She probably out fished Bill and Jim and caught 2 spoonbill on top of that. Here are some pictures of Valerie with some real big smiles. Valerie, it was my pleasure to have you in the boat fishing along side of us. The 2 day total for this group was 130 sandbass and 3 spoonbill. In my heart there is nothing better then spending time with family and friends doing the things that you love to do best.
