Lake St. John Thanksgiving Day
My family got together on Wednesday for Thanksgiving. That left me today free. So, after looking at pictures of Josh's catch over the last 3-4 days; what did I do? I hooked up the boat as soon as I got home on Wed. and headed to St. John Thursday morning around 5:00 AM. Arrived at the lake about 7:00 and launched the boat. Started fishing about 7:30 and quit at 11:00. Caught some fish on a sweet tea and lemon Bobby Garland and some fish on a Cajun cricket/chartreuse triple tail. But I caught most of my fish on my hand tied hair jig in the Gray Ghost colors. Josh probably caught 15-20 before he left for Monroe to have lunch with his in-laws. I caught the rest of them. I cleaned 57. What a wonderful Thanksgiving Day I had today. At times I was catching 2-3 fish per minute. I don't know how many we caught. Culled everything under 11 inches except one 10 incher that swallowed the hook.
I almost forgot to mention that I caught most of my fish on the Wahali pole I got as a door prize at the D'Arbonne Gathering. What a pole! Sensitive tip with plenty of backbone.
