Fishing today.

Ok launch the boat at the point this morning. Head to Black Lake. Get in the salt ditch and motor starts knocking real bad. Shut it down. Start it up and won't idle. Finally get it running, still knocking, but won't got past 2000 rpms hammered down. Decided what the hell drop anchor and catch 12 reds, 4 trout and 4 flounder. Throw the cast net and hooks on my blackberry and throws it in the water. Start heading home, half way in the salt ditch motor locks up. Won't turn over at all. Got towed to Ellender launch. Then called one of my buddies in the marine divsion and he pulled us the rest of the way. Then start cleaning fish and cut my damn finger.. What the hell. So Im off til friday and my boat is broke. Damn Im pissy..lol
