After the success of last Sat. I decided to try my luck again. Got there early and went to the same spot with the same presentation. Bingo.Got another. This time a hen.

Left that area for a couple of hours to try some other spots, with no luck. Came back to my spot and tried again. This time I got a native that was not happy. He took a good 15 minutes to bring in. I couldn't shake the hook loose, so I banked him. I had to use my pliers to get the hook out and then I took a picture and sent him on his way.

Nice! Sounds like you're getting into the groove. I need to get back into it! Been a little while since I caught one. The hen have some good eggs in her? That's one thing I like about hens, its like a bonus! Well congrats! Gonna have to make my way out there or to the slaw once the waters calm down a little. All this rain should be flushing some in (hopefully!)
