June 5, 2010 BFL

Another bad luck day for me this year. Will it ever get better for me in the BFL. I drew a good partner, Mike Cox, boat # 137 out of 144 and was ready to fish ledges all day, with high hopes of catching a limit. We stopped on the first spot just south of the 68 bridge and caught a few short fish. We then left there and went down south of Paris, TN  to our second spot. When my partner put his trolling motor down the cable broke inside the head of the motor. He did go to Paris marina to try to fix it and buy a anchor. Mike worked hard to try and hold on his spots so we could both try and catch some fish. But, no luck for both of us. It was very hard to hold on ledges fighting wind and boat traffic. So, now, I really have to get with it. With some good draws I can still make the Regional.
