March 2016 Fishing and Running

March was not a great month of fishing and running for me. Too busy with a merger at work. I finished with 20 miles for the month. Horrible mileage! As for bass fishing I managed a nice chunk on a Tex-Rigged pegged Missile D Bomb creature bait in black and blue color about 5 feet from the bank.

Water temperature was 60 degrees and stained water. Wind was blowing around 12 miles mph. 

The Return

Well hello. It's been a little more than a year since I jotted some words or shared some photos on this blog. 2015 was supposed to be a better year in terms of running. Unfortunately, I rushed my return to pounding the pavement after sustaining an injury on Christmas Eve 2014. I didn't do much running only managing 300 plus miles. Since I couldn't run, I did a lot of fishing. Which it kind of balanced out. Anything to get outdoors.

Here are some highlights of 2015.
