Well I went to my buddies down inPembroke to watch the game. I threw my jigging stick in the truck just in case. I went to the canal around 630pm, to work on my conventional casting. Well I had very few backlashes, I managed to snag some braid from the bottom. I handlined it in, and at the end was a 4 or 5 oz smiling bill, with a porko on it. A few more casts, and I lose my first jig of the night. So I tie on the smilin bill, went without a snap, and casted it out. At the end of the drift, I start to retrieve, and wham I am on, 10 minute fight nd I can finally see this fish. It gets in front, and I keep the pressure on as I grab the BigLip, Line snap at the jig, there goes first canal jigged fish, and new lucky jig
. Not to be detered, I tie on a snap, and a jig with a GS smoke 9" Bigjerk. After four or five drifts, I am reeling in and wham, I am on again. I landed and released this fish, 30" not a biggie, but better than what I caught last night, right John
. A couple more drifts, and finally I hook one while the jig is actually drifting along the bottom. Well I finally figured out that I never was missing any fish at this game. Caught and landed another fish, 29". Well I got 1 more fish 33", and lost another jig. I said to myself, You landed 3 fish, and lost another don't push your luck. Two more casts, and I snagged the 70 yards of big game I lost, and hand lined it in to retrieve one of my jigs. Finally I got fish jigging. Can't wait to try that again, want to make sure it was'nt a fluke.
I also missed a few hits.
