Well, I decided to go fishing with my dad Saturday afternoon at Foss Lake... Of course, that wasn't a good idea... didn't really like the wakeboarder boats coming within 15 - 20 yards of us fishing... but I got to practice my balancing skills between those losers and the trim motor not working on the boat (my body weight had to be used to plane out)...

I did catch a fish, so that was good...

But this gave me a good laugh before leaving...

And of course... the idiots double and triple parked...

Exactly the reason I went and shot matches this weekend. I NEVER go to the lake on holidays.

This.

There are enough morons that hang out on the lakes during non-holiday weekends. But throw in a long weekend and you're sure to just get pissed off at the complete trash that show up and act like idiots.

yep, i've been a boat owner for 15 years. my kids grew up boating but the holiday weekends can ruin a family's time real fast. we find that the weekend before or after is much more condusive to good family fun. not as many drunken idiots out.

The Big Three (Memorial day ,July 4th, Labor day ) is the only time most of these lake wariors(twenty somethings and 40 yr old want a be"s) come out to play. We watch the show on Keystone each year from the Shriner campground and keep our boat dry till it safe to go out again .

I avoid lakes on Holidays, specially Memorial and 4th of July like a plague. Is that a drum you caught?

Yeah, trolling. Because it's a drum, my total fish count this year is ZERO (1 black bass at McGee Creek, drums and other trash fish count as "-1" according to my dad and his fishing buddies). The blood is because the line got tangled up in some trees.

Weak fish. Heavy action rod, spiderwire, and didn't feel a thing until I hit the trees.
