OK, the greatest video ever (on my blog anyway); turn up the volume. This was filmed in June (I think) on a good day for blues. After filling the cooler with blues and Spanish by trolling we cast into some bait balls and found this toothy critter among many others on light tackle. You can see I had a lot of fun, and you can also see me getting behind the cooler after he bit the bimini top and held on............. Lots of fun and serenaded by Saturday Night Rendezvous from Franc White's show. So relax, sit back and enjoy because it's time to re-visit the wonderful world of the great outdoors with the Southern (born) Sportsman, John Riley. Brought to you today by River Ox Boats, House Autry Mills, and Happy Jack dog products....ask for it by name (woof woof)....your dog would

I will endorse House Autry, tried others and I still prefer HA; used to use Happy Jack with that old pointer Sheeethade (figure it out, Jay thought he was French), don't think River Ox is still around anymore; they did made one heckuva a good river boat in the 70's.

And a neat old picture of Jackson at the end. West lost tonight 31-7; Jackson had 4 punts including a 24 yarder that pinned White Oak on their own 5; averaged 32.2 for the night

Thanks to the FO for the film

A bueno Spanishimo day!

Had my best Spanish day of all time; or at least on my own boat anyway, kept 12 quality Spanish and 12 nice blues also. Most of the fishing was completed by 930-1000 Thursday morning. Plenty of fish for dinner and the freezer.

The newspaper shot was to prove that it was indeed October 1 and not a previous trip.

Seafood Festival Weekend; Jackson plays at White Oak, FO might come down for a Sunday morning trip, and yes.....stayed tuned for the best video of all time!
