Ft. Gibson Vacation

For those that don't keep up with me on Facebook I thought I'd share. I only have limited photos that I posted on FB but had more except my phone decided to quit working the day I got back home when I decided to go to Draper to scan it. I didn't realize that my phone had slipped out of my pocket and was in water that collects at my transom. Needless to say I lost all my contacts and pictures. Anyhoo here is what I have. I couldn't have picked a better week than last week to go to the lake. Almost everyday was next to no wind and sunny. I caught a ton of fish and my 3 and 6 year old did too. Johhny Shad and I placed 8th in the tourney. Didn't matter what color I threw in the lake, the fish bit it. Monday - Thursday I dipped submerged trees and laydowns in the main lake. Friday and Saturday Johnny opened up my world to the river and how he attacks it. This was valuable info I soaked up that will be used until I die! I learned alot from him Friday and Saturday. On Tuesday my daughter caught the biggest crappie and my boy caught his 1st crappie casting and dragging. Picture time!

Awesome. Beautiful family having a great time. Don't get no better. Thanks for sharing.

Now that's a great big bunch of memories right there!


what is your facebook name?

Absolutely terrific post Dr Nip! Really appreciate the photos and seeing you, and crew, at the lake.
Sorry about your phone.

Awesome time with the family I hope Travis. Sometimes it's just the simple things that we seem to forget. Always keep family involved in what you love to do and most important is you teach those kids about the great outdoors. It will last a lifetime. Thanks for sharing, love seeing the kid pictures. Glad everyone had a good time.

My boy is hooked I tell ya.

looks like a good time!!!!! next time you're this close let me know ill show you and the kids a kid friendly easy catching spot!!!

Very enjoyable post Nip- you sure timed that vacation perfectly!

That's the best I've seen them bite on Gibson in a long time. Nothing beats camping at the lake with the family. EB

Thanks for sharing Travis!
