Gonna be hot tomorrow

[RUGER]

I guess it's gonna be the hottest day of the year so far.
Still thinking about going fishing.
Got a fancy battery powered fan I need to try out anyway.

Need about a 12 pack of propel I would imagine.

Crazy you will be hotter in TN than me on the coast tomorrow. I'm off as well, high is only 92 deg down here, one of the coolest days we've had in a month. As long as I get my trailer up and running, I'm planning on going.

I'm actually considering fishing with live bait tomorrow... shameful I know, but hearing several reports of 3 to 4 lb trout being caught in close on live croakers

I tried minnows for crappie last weekend.
Never got a nibble.
Caught 50+ between my buddy and I, all on the gulp minnow.

A friend and I always said we wanted to find a space suit with air conditioning. They sell liquid cooling garments on amazon. If they work, it would be a serious consideration.

I bought a dewalt 20v fan which has been a lifesaver at times when the power goes out. I may need to start taking it out on my boat on days like these.

Shoot, this time of year I average 200+ ounces of water a day. I need to get me a rod mount bar for my trolling so that I can attach my umbrella to my seat and sit in the shade and not even have to hold a rod.

I prefer the "smelt" color, not sure for Ruger though.

Smelt.

When I fish in the summer I sit under a 9' Sportbrella. On the really hot days I use a Kobalt fan with a mister that attaches to a five gallon bucket. Fill the bucket with ice and water and that mister will keep you cool. You'll be wet though.

We caught some big ones today.

I freaking love this heat. For our fishing the hotter the better, and in my opinion it's never too hot to fish. River swimming is a a wonderful and refreshing activity

I just got one of those fans a couple weeks ago.
@gasman turned me onto it.

Guys ever try these hats? I got one of those cooling towels many years ago from Harbor Freight on a whim, and it worked great when I was building my deer blind in 100* weather. So when these came out I figured what the heck, and I tell you, you can tell the difference. Haven't tried it while fishing but figured it should be easy enough to dunk it now and then to keep it cooling. The links are to their site but I've seen these at Walmart and Home Depot or Lowes I think.

I have this one, mainly because it looked like my boonie hat I had in the Army.

I may just buy this one too, I like the type, specially on hot sunny days, keep from roasting my neck.

Awesome!

Heck yeah!!!

I usually go later in the evening when the sun starts setting. On the rare occasion I do go earlier, I have the Buff and a cooler. Dunk the buff in some cold water and put it around your neck. It will help keep you cool.

it was nasty hot. Im so ready to fish in october! Lost my active target about an hour in. It lost power. Not sure why. Probably a bad connection

 

[redblood]

Hard to fish now without seeing the fish first lol.
