9/22/24 Tough Trip Report

[snagged in outlet 3]

Left the ramp in the dark at 6:30.  Threw the buzzer, spittin image and spook for 2 hours.  Too many swings and misses to count.  Unbelievable how many.  Cranked and jigged after that and left at 11:30.  Caught several small spots and this 17” smallie that smoked the buzzer.   Fun day but not a lot in the net.   2 more water moccasins too.

The ole cottony mouths were on the 11pt last weekend.  All puffed up and floating along.

Took grandson back into Grandpa's old homestead at old Greenville on Sat.  It usually produces a few everytime I have been back in that slough.  Guess the otters have them  thinned out.  Saw a family of 5 of them down at Myrtle last weekend, look like porpoises swimming across the river coming up for air.

I don't remember ever seeing one on the Upper White.  Not that I am complaining.

Back end of a long cove just south of the dam.
