    While inshore with Captain Garrett Ross of Miss Judy Charter Mickey Holbrook (guide on Lanier) took what is better known a serious busman’s holiday! Long time friend Captain Garrett showed Mickey the saltwater catching way! And I am sure when the timing is right Captain Garrett might take Mickey up on his offer to take him to do a little striped bass fishing! Now for those that want to do some saltwater inshore fishing give Miss Judy Charters, 912 897 4921, and book Captain Garrett Ross. For those of you that want to do a little fresh water fishing I highly suggest giving Mickey Holbrook owner operator of MAD GILLZ Fishing Guide Service a call.

    When this family departed Nebraska for Savannah Beach (Georgia) home temperatures were very cold! The family was dressed appropriately for cold weather conditions. Once arriving all bundled up they immediately changed in to their packed beach attire and started their warm vacation time! Being from Savannah all of my life, when a customer says, “They just left real cold weather and lots of snow!” I just remark, “Sound like you came from another planet!” I don’t really mind a little winter time, but below freezing and lots of snow definitely does not compute! (At least not at Miss Judy Charters!) As you can already see from the this pictures this group knows how to have a great time! Ya’ll come back soon!

However, did it stop these fishermen from going a-fishing? Nope, it did not! Fishermen departing on 21 foot inshore boats caught red fish, (slots trophy size) spotted sea trout, flounder, black drum, and whiting! Those that had planned on going offshore bottom fished in the sound catching whiting, summer trout, bonnet head shark, Atlantic sharpnose shark, spinner sharks, croaker, pig fish, stingrays, and trophy red fish!

    Little Miss Judy’s Believe It or Not!

    This picture was taken on a Thanksgiving Day in the mid eighties! My father, Thanksgiving Dinner, and me!





    Little Miss Judy’s Believe It or Not!
    A True Thanksgiving Story..Sardines Snack and the Turkey Slide!
    My father always invited lots of family and friends to our Pre-Thanksgiving and drinking fest. It normally started around noon and most of the time lasted way until the early hours of the morning. I might as well get to the truth of it all. There was lots to eat and as I mentioned earlier also a lot of drinking going on! Due to the fact that there were so many different types of people attending I have to admit sometimes things really got interesting. By large there was a good time had by all even if the blue light special was sometimes involved.


    Our dinner wasn’t like most others where your family comes to visit, sits at the table, converses, and then eats. It was more like a large picnic where you sat where you could and drank either what you brought or what was available. My father always had some sort of spirits around. According to my father the best of all liquor’s was called “O P!” This simply stood for “other people’s liquor.”


    We spent our actual Thanksgiving Day at my Aunt Hattie and Uncle Foster’s house, which I am publishing in next next’s report. Our pre-Thanksgiving party was always a hit with those that attended and also it meant a great deal for those that didn’t. The reason for this is a simple one, “those that didn’t really had lots to talk about!” Our parties did get out of hand in most cases, which only added fuel to the conversations of the “busybody brigade!” My father use to always say, “Women in hats always have something to hide!” According to daddy it was their big mouths! As a child, I wasn’t sure about the mouth thing. So therefore I stared at all those that were wearing hats, because I was always trying to get a glimpse of what they were supposedly trying to hide. I am sure glad I grew out of that one! As you already know, I like to wear a hat sometimes myself!


    We made this hors d’oeuvre, although Daddy never called them that. I can guarantee they were eaten by the handfuls. Daddy would take a tube of saltines crackers and deal them out on a big tray. After that achievement he would open a few cans of whole sardines, drain them, and put a large piece on each cracker. As well as I can remember ½ sardine on each cracker worked out well. On top of the sardines daddy put a thinly cut ring of raw Vidalia onion or a big piece of scallion onion. Here’s comes the last part and the best for me while he was building his hors d’ oeuvre I was “rolling the lemons!” I was allowed to roll them on any hard surface that I could find. So therefore some were rolled on the tabletop while others were rolled on the concrete floor, because that’s where most of them ended up. My job was to soften the tough meat of the old lemons. I would then hand them over and daddy would cut them in half. He then would squeeze the juice over the top of the crackers, sardines, and onion rings. According to my father this was a dish that had to be eaten right away. If not the crackers would become too soft to even pick up. My job was to carry the tray and offer them up. As I can remember since it was long ago I think I only dropped a few trays. This was not a total lost, because the dogs liked them too!
    Our guests showed up in cars, trucks, and boats. We never knew exactly how many guests would attend, but knowing my father as I did I always expected a lot. In the cooking department, I would have some help from daddy in my younger years, but as I got older I grabbed whomever I could. We cooked the normal Thanksgiving stuff, which consisted of baked turkey, dressing, and lima beans. When I was young, eight years or less, neither Daddy nor I could figure out how to make Giblet gravy or rice. Back in the old days you couldn’t just purchase gravy in a jar or rice in a bag. So therefore we stayed away from those two items. We had our turkey recipe down. We just oiled the bird up, put some choice seasonings on it, dumped it in the oven, and put it on 350 degrees for many hours. However, there was this time where the turkey slipped out of our hands and on to the floor it went. A greased headless 22-pound turkey when free dropped from 3 feet especially at an angle can do some traveling on the old kitchen floor. I should have measured the distance, but didn’t think about it at the time. It could have been some sort of a world record!


    The stuffing/dressing was another thing that I didn’t understand the whole just of. My first dressings didn’t have much taste. I don’t know why I just didn’t ask someone, but I really never thought about it. The biggest problem was the fact that I didn’t know that it had to be cooked in the oven. Most of the time it was made from the turkey’s juice and cracked up toast. It never looked much less tasted like Aunt Hattie’s dressing whether I cooked it or not. I guess you really could say especially in this case “the secret was definitely not in my sauce!” Thanks goodness when other sauces were added everyone thought everything seemed to taste great! And it must have, because we basically never had any leftovers! So therefore I must have been doing something right!


    Happy Thanksgiving to all! And thanks for reading! Captain Judy
