Well fellas, our trip wasn't real productive. We braved the winds and high barometric pressure only to catch five slot fish. It was very nice just to be back out on Vernon though. Just a reminder to all, check your u-bolts, leaf springs, and other trailer hardware often. Us boys from SWLA who enjoy both salt and freswater fishing can sometimes forget about the damage saltwater can do to a boat trailer. My lack of maintenance on my trailer made itself evident in downtown Deridder saturday afternoon when the u-bolt on one side of my axle gave way causing the other side to break too. This left only the main leaf spring to pin the axle under the trailer. Blown out tire, fenders torn to hell, all new springs and mounting hardware, and a $250 towing bill to haul it home. What a day.

Jordan, there was nothing any of us could've done. Putting it on a flat bed was the only option. I was able to find some old humps and creek channels we used to fish. I fixed the trailer already, cant wait to get back up there.
