    Default Claiborne on New Years Eve


    Made a trip to Claiborne even though the wind was supposed to be from the N to ENE. It was a pretty cool day to be on the water, but I wasn't the only one. Everyone was catching some fish, but not huge amounts. Everyone I talked to seem to have caught around 15. Jim was there and he ended up with 22 which is the most of anyone I talked to that was fishing by themselves. I ended up with 16. Only 5 were nice fish. I kept the smaller ones for a neighbor who likes whole scalers. Sorry to say that all fish except 1 came on shiners. You all know that I rarely fish with anything except jigs, but seems like I only use shiners at Claiborne. Well enough. Here are a couple of pics. The biggest fish was 14 1/2 inches and 1lb 11 oz.

    Sorry about links instead of the actual pictures, but they have changed photobucket since I used it last and haven't had time to figure it out yet

    There are two things to aim for in life: First, to get what you want; and after that, to enjoy it. Only the wisest of mankind achieves the second. Author unknown, but I like it!
