Eastside Rendezvous: Cats and Smallies

[buckhorn2]

Rick said he had a lot of call orders to fill so I will let you know what I can. Rick showed up on tuesday and started to try the bank by the state park but ran right on to a rattlesnake and decided not to go any farther. Only Rick and myself and my friend Bob showed up so Rick hopped in my boat. We followed the advise of teacherman and Da stump and they were right on the money with there advise right down to the sand bars. We ran into a guide from the white elephant and he gave me some hooks and showed us how he rigged up. He used spinning poles with 10 pound line and no weight you just cast out and let it drift with the current. He caught suckers and filleted them and made 3 inch strips about an inch wide and put a hook in one end. We caught ours on chunks of trout. Anyway we were dissapointed in not being able to meet more of you but Rick put on a calling demonstration for us that had us looking for coyotes and he showed us some of his calls he has made that you would liked to have more of. We had a great time and plan on doing it again at the same time like Da stump advised and hope next year more people will be able to be there. We never could find that lake so it;s still a secret.
