Back to Tradition 11/27
« on: November 28, 2014, 05:59:56 AM »
 It has been a few years since I have been able to participate in the traditional Thanksgiving morning fishing session with some good friends. This year, my schedule let me participate.

 As usual, I was the first to arrive to a beautiful morning on the bay.


I even caught a few bass. I wasn't sure I would be able to remember how, it has been so long.


Soon, I saw some familiar vehicles arrive and went up to the parking lot to greet everybody.


Then the fun began. Getting re connected while working the shoreline, leapfrogging to fish the new water first, and even an occasional fish.






The fish count for one person along the shoreline would have made a great morning. With five guys working the shoreline, the counts were smaller, but everyone got some fish.

Even more important than the fish count was the chance to spend some time with some great people. The real Thanksgiving tradition.

Ok, Reid, but I felt bad I was too slow to catch Phong's blow up too. But, since you asked for it...


Reid had to respool after this disaster, but he wasn't the only one who had trouble, just the only one I got a picture of.

Nailed it!  ;D

Excellent session guys.  It's so good to see the EDC back together and picking up where you left off.

Super cool and nice numbers!
You can't catch them from your computer chair.

It was good fun fishing with ya'll again.  I got ten (seven spotted uglies and three micro sandies) which means the bite was pretty good.
