CHRIS'S MARINE PULLS RABBIT OUT OF HAT

7-9-2016--Yesterday morning I thought I would be off the water for several weeks after my, out of warranty, motor trashed itself. I dropped the boat off at Chris's Marine and went to lunch. They called to tell me exactly what I expected "the motor is trash". I already had a motor on backorder for early August delivery. Another call from Chris's informed they could have me running with a new motor before close of business. I picked up the boat with new motor before 5 PM. In half a day Chris had solved my problem and insured I did not have to cancel today's clients.
Over the years I've come to expect timely, quality service at Chris's. Still, half a day for a new motor is nothing short of unbelievable.

GOOD READING

7-6-2016--My favorite outdoor magazine Texas Fish and Game has a good fishing article on page 84 of it's July issue written by Greg Berlocher. In the article he covers the ins and outs of how and when we use cut bait.

AWESOME DAY

6-30-2016--Most of the trout in picture were caught on artificial lures. Many more limits of keeper trout were released. David caught all his trout on a Rapala Green Mullet. Nancy caught several trout on a voodu shrimp. We pulled up to one place where I baited Nancy with a croaker. When they threw out I tossed out a spook junior. All three of us hooked up with keeper trout. David had a trout on each of the green mullet hooks so we landed 4 fish at once. I'm generally impressed with a double hookup. Hooking 4 fish at once was a new one for me.
