Am I losing my gourd? The other night I launched my 8’ pontoon at 2330 h and started working my way down a rocky bank of a local reservoir with the 9” Slammer. After an hour of casting with nothing to show for it I decided that rowing a mile to the dam was worth a try. It worked - I picked up 2 largemouth to 3 lbs out of 4 strikes. Then I had to row back, which took a while, and then I decided that of one dam was good, two dams would be better, and loaded the ‘toon in the truck and drove to a second ramp. I launched again at 0230 h and rowed to the 2nd dam, picked up another 4 fish, and then rowed back. By then it was 0400 h and with an 0730 h appointment I knew I had to call it a night. My arms and shoulders were feeling it for sure. Today I used Google Earth to map out my route and figured out that I rowed 3.5 miles in the middle of the night for 6 bass (from 9 topwater strikes). I love catching bass at night on topwater as much as the next swimbait junkie but is this taking it too far? How far will you row or paddle to get into fish? Like I said at the start, have I lost my mind or is this normal?
