First I want to apologies to everyone that has been keeping up with my blog for the long break between posts. Life has been a little crazy here lately and I haven’t had as much time as I would like to post or at all for that matter.
I did get to make a trip up to Bristol with a good friend of mine Mike Stiehl for some excellent fishing in September. Wow that sounds like a long time ago now. We ended up with over seventy fish between the two of us and I caught my biggest brown 17 inches. This was probably my most favorite tail water fishing trip that I have gone on this year. The trout were actively feeding most of the day and the sight fishing was first class.
I have also fished the Clinch River a few times since the trip to Bristol. Nothing to exciting there as the fishing has started to slow down since the weather has been cooling down a bit. I did see brown that was in the upper twenty lower thirty inch range jump out of the water about thirty feet from me about two weeks ago while fishing the millers island section. I never got her to bite and believe me I tried for a while.
Work has been crazy and I have to admit that I am going a little stir-crazy not being able to do any hunting up here. I have been going to a local park to listen and talk with the ducks “with my call of course.” I am so ready to this Thanksgiving to get here so I can go home to Mississippi and take my dad duck hunting with my number one duck chase’n buddy Ryan Winters. We always have a good time out there. Well I guess that’s all for today I promise it will not be to long before I get another post up.
