Badin 4/18 Wounded Warriors event

[Rookie12]

We took out a group of wounded soldiers fishing today on Badin for cats and had a decent day. A good time was had by all. We had nine soldiers I think from Fort Bragg and some marines from Lejeune (not sure if that's spelled right). The soldier on my boat was a 33 year veteran of the army and a super nice guy and I did my best to put him on some quality fish. We ended up with several small channel cats and two decent blues at 16 and 28 lbs. The boat traffic this morning killed the bite. I've never seen so many boats up the river before. It had to be around 50 total. Pics are below
