Our second annual lake Norman trip is about to take off, just made the reservations and we’ll be staying in Mooresville this time. Should be arriving Friday the 20th in the afternoon and heading to Bass Pro for licenses and whatever else is needed.

We’re actually going to have a few more guys from the area show up this year and it should be a good weekend from the weather standpoint, looks like upper 70’s to low 80’s for the weekend, a far cry from where we’re at today [emoji23]

My son is coming up from columbia again and he and I will be fishing out of my buddy Shawn’s boat, which is what I’m towing down again this year. Should be a great weekend and hopefully the bass will cooperate again this year. Water temps should be more conducive for it, compared to last year.

Hopefully we’ll have some good photos to share of some nice spotted bass.....

Pretty excited about this road trip, been looking forward to some quality boat time with my oldest....

Yes, and I believe the state record was caught there. There’s a restaurant on the lake you can pull your boat up too and there’s a lot of huge stripers on the walls...

Sounds like it'll be another great trip J. I'm jealous.. 70 and 80 degrees would be sweet!

Yeah, really need to get to some warmer weather, this latest bought of weather has me holed up and not wanting to be out in it at all... Can’t remember the last time I did that lol....
