I have posted much here simply because I have not been able to catch a decent size catfish since they went into spawn season. Saturday was another bust. Can't even get the dinks to bite. Wednesday, my boat partner and I hired JR Hall with Blacksheep Guide for a 8 hour trip. Not to catch fish, but to teach us how to catch fish. JR has been consistently putting 70lb'ers in the boat all summer. Saturday's trip started out with blinding fog all the way from Ditto to G Dam. Couldn't see either shore line so had to navigate using GPS. On the return trip, it was playing dodgeball with all the floaters. 8 gates were open. He is a great dude, never been fishing with him but he's been on several deer tracks with me.

5 fish caught, 35, 22, 18, and two 10's. But the trip was not about catching fish, but learning how to catch fish. We did a lot of scouting and JR would explain why a certain place would or would not produce fish. He showed us how to read our electronics, how to properly anchor (or spotlock), to present bait to the fish. Covered planer boards, drift fishing, suspend fishing, etc. The best part, was he taught us how to lock through the dam. Now I can catch skipjack below G Dam, then lock up to fish Lake Guntersville. I did hook a monster that took me underneath a sunken tree. JR actually tried to use his anchor to try and lift the tree off the bottom. The 100lb leader eventually broke. I tell everybody I had the Lake Wheeler record because there is no proof I didn't! ps, If one of your kids likes to fish and has a birthday coming up, a trip with JR would be a perfect gift.
