Hey Ed,
You are the Luckiest guy I've ever seen.You seem to get lots of days in every year fishing special places with special fishermen.I'm glad you got an opportunity to fish with Whitey and Ronnie.
Keep up the good "work".
I've been called spoiled rotten and lucky, but as CDC as my witness Slab is even more spoiled rotten as me!!

Love, what more can I say
That's awesome! Give us more details please!
Had to be great just being able to watch the two of 'em and how they
worked the water. That alone would be worth whatever it cost. Congrats!

What I can add is, when they pleasure fish, they use a lot of 6's. Only 6 rods, 6lb test line, and 1/16th ounce jigs. Some are painted, others are not. No skirts, just live minnows.
Other than that, they are super intense, they see something, their hand is hovering over the rod at the ready, ready to set the hook. Another example of their intensity is, Ron catches a Catfish by accident (of course) and he simply shuffles the rods, hangs the rod with the catfish out behind him, fighting it blindly, will all his eyes and attention still focused on the other rods he's still fishing crappie with. Once he feels the cat is tired enough, he swings it boat side, and he or I would unhook it. New minner for that rod, and it's in the water fishing with it again. Everything was smooth, and deliberate, just like they've been fishing their whole life, and well, they have been!
I got a video of this, I'll have to show it.
