Got up early to head to lochloosa this morning. Got a pound of minnows and it was all hands on deck till about 10:00 a.m. when the bite shut down. Caught 78 and boxed 48 between 11" and "14 with a couple 15" fish. Awesome day

But we had to work for them. Met up w/Andy aka/Crappieday @ daybreak & it didn't take long before a few rods bent, however, I acknowledged to Andy beforehand that this was a scouting trip & I usually don't fish Jesup this time of yr,

Decided to switch things up and instead of hunting I went fishing. Knocked the dust off the boat and rods yesterday and enjoyed a very nice warm, sunny, windless day on the water. Trolled around awhile with big motor looking not finding much

Haven’t been in near thirty years but I went offshore with my SIL today. Mike has a very nice 22’ center console well suited for the task. A few large fish were fought today but mostly in Mike's friends boat that was fishing nearby. I didn’t

Fished Grenada Saturday it was cloudy but absolutely no wind I can’t remember the last time I got to fish with no wind! Fish were holding in 13’-18’ of water and 6’-10’ deep. There were more boats out yesterday than I have seen in December

I got Dr Phillip Gawthrop out of the woods long enough to make a short trip up to Watts Bar tailwaters and check out the fish and conditions. Conditions were perfect for December 5th with 15,000 cfs flowing through 3 turbines, cloudy skies

A couple of days ago, Tuesday, I had the pleasurable opportunity, to do another Show and tell with another Far North native(Wisconsin) friend. AJ "pre-punctually" arrived @my driveway at 05:50(said he couldn't sleep) with some

Took a couple of days off before I lost em at the end of the year. I turned 65 on Tuesday and that seemed like as good an excuse as any. I hadn’t been to the salt for a while so that’s where I wound up. Tuesday I went solo in the Jon and it

Had a great day on the water. The weather was beautiful with low winds. Fish bit good, not great but good enough to catch a limit. Had 4 or 5 over 2lbs. Didn't have my first mate to take good pictures but I managed. All fish caught on jigs
...
long overdue so off I went. Very chilly this morning, but our Salt trip from last week was more on the bitter-cold side for Florida. Decided that 8 longline trolling rods would be enough for me to manage alone with a rather brisk NE 10 - 15

Fleshed my Fav O Rite swamp Tuesday. The Atchafalaya Spillway By U Sorrell area.
Conditions were perfect. Water was still low and muddy. Blue sky and da wind wuz nice and brisk out da north. Good thing about da swamp u cah dodge

This morning, but not without its rewards. Everything smooth from the start with one exception. I forgot to put the millennium seats in the boat. The plus to that was that they wouldn’t get in the way today. Had we been out for a long day I

Great day on the water. I was all over them and they were finicky. It's amazing how far you can follow a school. When they suspend deep and move, it gets tough. Ended up with 27 and got close to the 3lb mark. Most were around 15 inches. Adding
