Notes

First time fishing this section of Goose Creek. Good mix of smallmouth and largemouth looking water. STill had a tough time keeping smallies hooked with the Fluke jr. Lost probably 5-6 that were hooked briefly with some other small taps.

Mike caught his first smallie and largest bass on the trip. Largemouth went 16" and caught near wood on bank in slower pool area.

Fishing turned on in last hour, as clouds covered the sun. Ended up storming bad as we left the parking lot.
