I finally got into some nicer fish this past weekend. Saturday morning yielded about a dozen between 1-1-1/2 lbs. Same technique, just further down river.

jim b- I haven't started on the Tidecraft. I spent the spring and most of the summer redoing my "fish house" (shed) then tearing down the old Fisher getting it ready for scrap. It's ready to go now and I hope to get it up to recycling over the next couple of wekends. I plan to use the Cox drive on trailer that the Fisher is currently sitting on for the Tidecraft (I just don't trust the 1971 Mooney). First I need to rework the trailer, then get the Tidecraft on it. Sometime next spring I hope to be in full swing with the Tidecraft. By next Fall I think you will see the Tidecraft on the river. I guess I'll just have to keep fishing out of the Ouachita this winter!
