    Default Pre Huricane Santee Trip


    My nephew came out for a visit from California last week. He and I used to fish quite often back when he was a young fellow. Now he's a oil refinery manager and doing quite well for himself. It's was an honor when he emailed me requesting a fishing trip while he was in town for business. I certainly had a seat in the boat for him, so Thursday morning we set out on a mission to catch enough for a family gathering, and fish fry. The day started quite breezy, and the bite was slow. Around 11:00 am the winds laid down and the fish turned on. We were jigging a variety of brush, both deep and shallow. Along with and grass and lilies we could find in the right water depth. Some really quality fish were caught in both our limits. Including 5 over two pounds, with big fish going to him, and pictured on top in the cooler that weighed in at 2.5 pounds, and was the last fish of the day.

    It's not the numbers or the size, it's the time spent on the water!

    That is maybe the best "Welcome Home" I have ever seen! With catching crappie like those maybe he will get home sick later in life and decide to come back the South Carolina. Enjoyed your report as I always do Tim.

    He misses home, but he's a smart fellow. Served 6 years in the Airforce after graduation from U Tennessee, and has been working for Shell oil for the last dozen years. He'll probably be retired before me! lol
