Just when the ego gets a little large and the Catchin' is about as easy as it gets, Richland Chambers will bring you back down to reality! This week we didn't go completely from Hero to Zero, but pretty close on a couple of trips. I fished six days this past week and Adam fished four days and we still had a respectable 50-60 fish box on most of them, but on Wednesday thru Friday, we had to really work for a couple of 20 fish outings. The bite was still not great on Saturday, but we at least had 30 to 40 keeper fish and tons of throwbacks for our Customers, and enough action to make the trip FUN! All White Bass action except for our Monday trip when little Sheridan McLaughlin landed the large Hybrid Striper in the enclosed picture!
It's Summer, the action can go from great to really tough in a hurry and is pretty much the same experience from year to year. We tend to get spoiled in the Spring and Fall when it's so easy, the fish are everywhere and the only problem is "Limiting Out" too early in the trip. Oh well, it's still FUN for the Kids, the Fishing will improve from day to day, and even better, we'll soon be talking about Fall Fishing!
I did a short Crappie Trip on Tuesday morning with two of my regular Customers from Clifton (Bert and Neil), and we had 18 nice Crappie and Catfish before we ran out of minnows and changed to fishing for the White Bass. Sometimes the Crappie bite is better than the White Bass bite as the Summer heats up.
Adam and I continue to keep our calendar full as we're both booked everyday this coming week. We do have a few Weekday openings in late July and LOTS of Weekday openings in August. Sorry, but we do not have any Saturday openings until September and we always take Sunday off to attend Church and be with the Family. Here's a few dates we can accommodate you this month...July 22, 30 and 31.
Summer will be over for the Kids before you know it. If you want to schedule an outing on RC, give us a call at 903-389-4117 or check us out at www.gonefishin.biz .
