My buddy Kyle Calkins and I fished yesterday. Kyle always seems to bring the luck! We caught 36 reds up to 28 1/2 inches, but only 2 trout. We had several doubles. All fish came on mud minnows.
The photo of Kyle and a fish with 2 corks is a story itself. Kyle tightened up to set the hook and the loop on the cork broke and the fish swam back to the grass. I nosed up close, cast my cork next to the broken cork and half-jokingly told Kyle the mud minnow would swim around the leader and I could get his cork back. Sure enough, it all played out and we got the cork and the fish!
A great Thanksgiving weekend to fish with a nice young man…and we both were thankful for the great outdoor resources we enjoyed!
No problem. Fish bit on last 2 hours of incoming, then shut dow at high when the tide was way up. About the time good outgoing flow began, they bit again. I moved about mid tide falling to a spot I wanted to check and caught six more until around 4 pm and low daylight.
Was out on the Broad River today with Capt. Danny Rourke and we were catching trout and nice reds all morning long at several spots. Danny is a great guy.
