I have posted a couple of times recently, but I am a weekend warrior. The last few weekends, the weather was not helping or we had company. My wife and I were debating whether to come up last weekend. The fishing has been slow at times, but she finally said "I would like to go out with you". Deal done. We set out Sat. morning about 6:00am with water temp at about 78 degrees. We had gone out Friday night for a "boat ride" / scouting trip. I did find an creek that was holding some fish. I decided to start at the mouth of another creek. I set up planers, on top to 15', and down line. I notice a few fish breaking and working across the channel so after a few minutes I moved over to the other side of the channel. I set up again and as we came across a point, a planer on top fire off. My wife (Nana) took control and did a great job in bring in the 28" fish. Granted, she is a bluebird fisherman. I will go out in all kinds of weather to hunt or fish. In 3 hours we boated (5) fish between 26-28". Fish were caught on top, down about 15' and one at 40'. We kept some to eat and the ones we let go had no problem swimming off. We decided to stay around Sunday morning. She is a trooper and got up a little earlier. The fishing was a bit slower, but we landed (2) 26" fish. All the fish were healthy and only one was gut hooked. We enjoyed the weekend and Nana had a great time.
