Yesterday got bait easy out of dp and I got a 30lb fish and my daughter out did me again and got a 48lb fish.We also got a couple of teens a smaller still windy.Today out of dp again wind got bad early still managed to get a 21,20,15,13 and a few smaller fish off the river bt 12;30.There was two and a half foot waves at the 295 bridge.Looks like it will be windy again tomorrow to I will half to get out early and hit it hard.
Sorry to hear you had to get off the river early today. I don't know what it is with the wind this winter. I'm not sure if it's worse this year than in years past, or if I'm just paying more attention to the wind since I fish alot. But these past few weeks, the wind has really been bad.
Jerry glad to hear you guys are catching fish. Sorry to hear that the weathers not cooperating. Josh your right it has been very windy this year.
Got back last night cut our trip short a day due to a storm front coming down from up north did no want to chance driving through that.on are last day wensday my daughter got a 34lb fish and i got a few in the teens and smaller as usual.Mother nature kicked my butt good this week and I am happy to catch what I did.Could not fish alot of my spots due to the high winds.I will be back in november to try again.I talked with Kenneth a few times last week and I want to thank him for some tips he gave me,sorry we did not get the chance to hook up,may be next time.I will have the pitures posted in a day or so ,I will only post the citations.
Better luck next time JW. And hopefully mother nature will cooperate better! But hey, you got to fish for a few days straight and still bagged a few bigguns. Better than the alternative of sitting at home or worse being at work!

Jerry..hopefully mother nature will be better to you in Nov....know it was a tough week.... Congratulations to you & your daughter on the hawgs you did catch..... Good to hear you had a safe trip and it's always good to get on the James when you can..... Thanks for the reports..... Jerry
i hope the weather is better for my trip there in a week. i will gladly take a mess of nice fish like that anyday..congrats on the fish, and sorry it didn't cooperate the way you wanted it too...rollo:big_smile:
Jason...I'm thinking next week will be spring break for the blues and they will down at Daytona sunning for the week ....what ya think????? Yep just looked it up...February 29 - March 9, 2008...lol:confused2:
Thanks for the reports and pictures. I know you two shared some great moments together out there and had a safe trip back home. That is what life is all about. The wind is the the part of mother nature that has the most effect on us catfisher men/women. But every trip I go on is a learing experence. You never quit learning....
Jerry, that's not funny! :angry: They are just leaving for the weekend, the bigguns anyway. I wouldn't want to be out there Friday or Saturday, for they are not due back til late Sunday.... hmm... about the time I get there! :wink:
hey cecil, we caught all the bait we needed in the back of coves in 6ft of water or less. we did the best early in the morning. all this below JP.
