I hit the Jourdan River today to see numerous other Crappie Anglers pounding the banks. As I moved around most were fishing shiners 2ft under a cork. Since I was catching fish I didn't fish where others could see what I was doing.

With Hog Fest around the corner I'm in the kitchen creating new recipe Pork Tamales (can't show at this time, it is a competition after all). Since all the equipment is getting used I ground up a extra 25 pounds of pork shoulder for sausage.
