Well, the fishing hasn't gotten better in the last week, atleast not this past Saturday. The river has probably come down about 2 feet, but still no luck. I noticed that the water temp dropped 2 degrees in the last week, no dought from the cold front that passed through. That slight drop is enough to keep the fish from biting.
We managed to NOT get a bite on the catfish rods again. LOL, it's like my father in law says, "this is getting discouraging." But maybe three will be a charm. It was kinda funny, when we got to the hole to drop down the line, I managed to get the same goldfish out of the livewell I used last time. How do I know this for sure? He had the scar in his back from when I put the hook in him last time. LOL, I figure he's going through post tramatic stress right about now, having nightmares about his two trips to the bottom of the murkey water river. No dought surrounded by monster cats and thankful they weren't in the mood to eat. [sly]
The bream fishing is almost nonexistant as the constant change in water temp has them dazed and . The general consensis from the other anglers I talked to said it would be about another month the way things are going. I tend to agree. I did managed to catch a small shad while bream fishing, which I lost in a snag at my catfish hole. That didn't last long. [unimpressed]
Needless to say, it's that time of the year where fishing is in a transition phase. Only the lucky do good in SC during this time. I hope everyone else had better luck than I.
