This afternoon I took Regina and the kids out on the river for a scouting mission. We launched at Ward's Landing and headed South, stopping at all of the usual spots on the way down river. The fishing was pretty slow until we got down around the Red Sea and then things started to pick up. At first it was just a fish here and there but we ended up finding a nice school of fish and it was game on. We were drifting minnows down and then turning around and trolling back up. Each pass resulted in multiple hookups and before long we had boated over 20 fish, of which we kept 8 for the box before calling it a day. It was a great trip and Regina and I had a ton of fun watching the kids hook and land their own fish. Hopefully the fishing will just continue to get better!
