Fishing the water output at Lake SWEPCO one afternoon. There were may e 6 other boats and everyone was catching good bass. If you've never been there, there is about a 30 yd wide mouth where the warm water from the power plant discharges. The bass can stack up on it at times.
In order to fish it you nose the boat in tight, make a cast and float it out. Boats kinda take turns going in and out.
So there's these two guys that keep nosing in ahead of folks and being general pains to everyone. Eventually one of them hung his lure about 25 ft up one of the only small trees on the bank. They proceeded to get out and he was gonna scale that tree.
I kid you not, all six of the other boats stopped to watch cause we knew that tree, like all the others, was dead. Sure enough, as he gets up and just over the water, SNAP! And SPLASH!! The laughter was incredible from all around.
The made a beeline for the ramp and left flying the bird to the rest of us. It was priceless.
