Great day of fishing on the Muamee River today. Caught a bunch of big cats and a 23 in freshwater drum. I also fell in a deep hole while wadding out in the middle of the river and lost my glasses…so now I’m blind as a bat till I can get into see the eye doctor…As least I didn’t lose my pole or my hat… gotta think positive.
Hit a farm pond after work today and ended up with 13 keepers. Used the guts afterwards for the garden.
Hit a few ponds after work today and caught 30 big bluegill. All of them were over 8 inches long and 2 of them was over 9 inches long and weighed over a pound each.
Held our first Pass Port to Fishing Program today.. Turned out to be pretty successful with 31 kids showing up and participating. We had to have it inside due to the bad weather but I had a blast. Luckily the weather cooperated just long enough that we was able to go out and do some fishing for about an hour before it started raining again. Id like to thank MCI Employee’s Activity Committee for providing the funds to buy the fishing rods and food for today’s activities.
I would like to thank Jake Brewer, Garret Haines and Joe Kessler for helping out. They each ran a station during the event and it wouldnt have been possible without their help. Also a big thanks to Sequel Wellman for helping get the Certificates done and handed out. Also a big thanks to Eric Wylie and Darell Starcher for getting the fishing pond cleaned up and ready for us to fish. I hope I didnt forget anyone and hope to host another event sometime here in the near future.
Catfish season will begin in full swing here in a few weeks and that means Ill be doing a lot of night fishing. I found the new fish bite alarm that has a LED indicator and a sound alarm so when your fishing late at night and find yourself dozing off or busy shooting the breeze with your buddies you wont lose a fish and in some cases your whole fishing pole.
