Yesterday, 1-21-12, I fished a club tournament on Escambia River. It was a slow day for everyone including myself. We had about 20 anglers and only 1 managed to catch a limit. I did manage 4 keepers and and 4 short fish. The first fish in the video is my 3rd keeper that I caught prior to turning on the video camera. Within 10 minutes of video footage I landed my 4th keeper which was my biggest fish weighing 2.47 lbs. This was also the last fish I caught and it was only 9:00am. This fish got caught up in my trolling motor and I didn't think I was gonna be able to land the fish. I normally don't like fishing Escambia and this is one of the largest fish I've caught off of that river (that's probably why I don't like it). My scales had the fish weighing 3lbs 1oz, but the official scales only had it at 2.47 lbs. Either way - I was glad to have it. Enjoy the video.

Nice vid! Did you place well?

Nice video. 5 like the last one you caught will usually win on Escambia

fishing was tough. I caught 4 fish in 15 mins with one being a keeper,then my trolling motor incident happened. DOH!!!!!! maybe next month will be better.
