[QUOTE="Tim Sandstrom, post: 112875, member: 1108"] Tornado at Douglas Bay? My wife and I were there and fished the entire time. We were next to cut bank so wasn't that concerned. It hardly blew but the rain. Oh the rain! In 30-45 minutes it rained probably 2 inches or more. Lightning was pretty civil. We made terrible decisions day two. I felt not an issue getting limit of 18s. And if needed emergency 17s could get them. During the monsoon the fishing was nuts. Threw back about 3 or 4 sixteen inch fish. A couple 15s and bunch of dinks. Had a 19.75 in well and thought things were going to start up like we expected. But as rain quit it was like a switch. The graph emptied. Pretty sure they swam straight out over open water as they never went deeper or shallower. Went to crank spot but baited a little point on the spot first. Wouldn't take bait so put cranks down and pulled a 23. Thought this was finally going to be our turn to pull miracle bag with 1.5 hours to go. But instead we kept driving over marks with no takers. A guy pulled in and out bait down and bam, bam, bam. I put bait back on but just a 14 incher. So tossed it in. Went back to our first spot and fish started to show back up on graph. 20 minutes to go. First past we had THREE fish come unbuttoned. Had to settle for four fish weighing 8.49 pounds shoving us out of money. Relearned my lesson. Get the damn 5 in the well if you have them in your hands. Two 16's give us an extra 2 pounds good for 29th place and nice check. Oh well, stories and memories I guess. [/QUOTE]
