I woke up at seven which was alittle late so I shot outta bed. Brushed my teeth. I ran down stairs threw in some toast quick ate that then I was out. I grabbed my waiters and threw em in my truck pulled out two of the John boats I have and got them on a trailer. Then the guys showed up.
"Hey boys."
I said and we all bro hugged. "Man it's been awhile luke." jack said.

"Yeah it sure has.." We all laughed and joked around for like a half hour and then got all their tackle and their rods and of course beer in my truck and I grabbed my two rods and then we all hopped in my truck and we were off. "What landing we going to." "Lets just go to the one off 32 bridge we can always boat up the streams." Gilly said. I drove us there and we bullshitted around.

We got there and unloaded the John boats. We got everything we needed out of the truck and put it in the boats. I decided to ride with Seth and jack and Gilly will ride together. I grabbed my waterproof boombox radio and strapped it to my boat. Jack and Gilly pushed their boat in and got in and were ready and waiting for us.

"Common Luke hurry up." They said just joking with me.

"We'll hang on boys I gotta take a piss." I walked over to the woods area and let it out then came back over to the guys.

"Bout time I didn't know some one could take so long." They joked.

"Yeah whatever." I gave em the finger as we pushed the boat in and got in. I bought little motors for theses boats so then we began to go.

"You leading luke?" Asked Gilly who was driving the other boat. I washed him and jack as I used the little motor turned sharp an sped away past them. Water splashes at them and we all laughed.

"Boy Nashvilles showin you alot of courage ain't it Luther." Gilly spouted off.

"Well not really I just know I can kick your ass." I yelled back to them. We were headin up the river to one of my most favorite spots to fish on. We used to catch all the catfish there. Finally we got there and we got the boats up on a sand bar to stop we all got our waiters on and our poles ready. I called my little corner so I grabbed my pole and walked over there.

"Well should we start drinkin yet or did we just bring the beer to look at?" Jack piped up.

"Nah lets drink." Seth said. I walked back over to the boats and grabbed a beer along with the other fellas.

"Here's to nothin but old/present buddy's havin a damn good time together." I said and we laughed and drank. I turned on the boom box again and nothing but pod ol country music was playin. We got some Keith Urban and it was alittle bit of everything. "We'll I don't know about all y'all but I am goin fishin." I said and walked over to my spot.

I cast out and flicked the line a few times and immediately I got a bite I just smiled. This is what I have been missin up there in Nashville. I pull it in and it was a nice one. But I released it. We spent the rest of our time at this spot fishin bullshittin and talkin that's about 6hours. I caught about 13 fish and kept 4. Seth caught 7 and he decided to keep 2. Jack caught 9 and is keepin 3 and Gilly out fished us all with 15 but he's only keeping 1 cause all the others were not worth keepin.

That means Seth Lost and its tradition to eat a raw minnow or any of the bait if you get out fished by the whole party and a party means there must be at least four of you. So he did it was very unappetizing. I mean we all have done it but still it's not good. We all laughed and he chugged dangneer a whole beer. We packed up it was 1:30 and thought we should head back. So we got in the boats and raced back to the 32bridge landing. We got out packed everything and headed back home.
