Running Water=Hot Catfishing
Veteran Lake Tawakoni guide David Hanson eased the throttle back on his big Falcon guide boat as we entered a stump field on the north end of the lake. We had left the ramp at Anchor Inn Marina a few minutes before and traveled north at a good clip but as ever savvy boater knows, it was time to slow down to avoid hitting stumps that might top out at only inches below the water’s surface. How many times through the years had I met my friend at this well known marina? I’ve lost count but I do know every trip resulted in several freezer bags of tasty catfish fillets and memories that have already lasted several decades. 06/19/2024 03:01 PM
