Hunter was in for Christmas and wanted to do some fishing. Unfortunately the weather wasn't cooperating too well. Rainy/stormy then windy/cold.
But we managed to get a couple of trips in.
Thursday we strolled up to the lake and caught a few largemouths to get warmed up.
It was good to catch a few from the lake since the nasty flood earlier in the year had darkened the water considerably, but it looks like the bass are still in there and doing well.
With the cooler weather and wind we decided to put in at the Ochlockonee River State Park and fish in Bear Creek on Friday.
We hit the holes as we proceeded towards the boil, but couldn't get bit.
We eased past the boil about a quarter of a mile and finally got the bite going.
We caught 6 reds and surprisingly Hunter caught a largemouth bass that wanted his jerk bait.
Nancy and Hunter doubled up to get it going.

We then eased all the way through Bear Creek back to the ramp. It was a pretty day although windy and cool.
We tried fishing in Panacea Harbor on Saturday, but the wind was too much for us and after an hour we came in.
Our fish dinner for the holidays was provided to us by the Seineyard Restaurant as we headed there for Hunter to sample some fish before he heads back to Charleston for a new year.
