I love to hate pontoons. Fucking Travis's dad, Big Mike, has one for walleye fishing. I'll sit on it sullenly, supremely comfortable and happy, repeatedly repeating that I hate pontoon boats.
Midwestern atrocities, like cheese casserole, which, of course, I also love hate.

stopped at bridgeport, pipeline and swung a few at swingin bridge
a sympathy of colors in a land of rich history

did a lil fluff n buff on the hog
the hog shops on 13th just down from the james brown soul center of the universe bridge
so we crossed the tracks and swung a few up
hooked a small brown and outta nowhere a 20+" bow chased him and repeatedly headbutted took swipes at him even though he wasnt gonna fit in his mouth
ended up at sunpies for buck tacos n riverside spirits
hit the 40 road 420 ish to make it to tabernash and the hudge ones crib fore dark

jumped back in the runner 4 the trip east to denver
Rolled into the blake st tap room, nice brewery btw, late
missed most of the rules
pulled a drakians name outta a hat for my pro
only person in the room i knew to any degree
the etheopian had givin me his digits as hes poopslammed all of em and id hit him up for advice
and a brown water sipper n smot poker as well
god and i hit the best western with visions of 30" poopers and 10 ben franklins in our dreams
the slave reminds me off the hagen
big ole bear of a man
cept hes got whippy stick skills
our morning beat was overland
in the lot he says damn you got a lot of gear in that rig
you may wanna leave that god in there so its all still there when we git back
the games played w/ alternating 1/2 hour shifts
We both saw fish and had a few shots
the last hour both the pro and slamatuer git to throw
the slave hooked one under the bridge but it got off
i guess the florida street bridge has some drakian poopfish history
i dug back a good 40 pages of the slaves posts to try and find the under the bridge grafiti mural in its prime
i guess its buried under a lot of poliassfuck arguing and the cool fish ink art stuff he does
we ate lunch in the lot and headed south for our afternoon beat at 88th st
denver traffic sucks
as did the 0 vis conditions on that beat
i think i tried to nymph
but fuck i dont even like to watch bobbers for troots

and hit the after party at troots

i plan on being back
and raising ducketts for things like troot in the classsroom or improving urban fisheries is a win
And sharing pooper piscacatorial pursuits with a fkna good dude and our controller/judge was well worth the miles
woke n boke
made er safe over a foot of freshies white knuckler on berthound on non snows in 4 low
and a grayknuckler over rabbits ears to the boat put the hog back on the back pounded out another 8 on 40
