Seminole Ramlin's July 17, 2005 This weeks fishing has started off with a bang. Steven, Pam and Bailey Wells, as shown in the picture, sure landed a nice stringer of fine Painted Bream. They were using Crickets in 2 foot of water. There was several other catches of Bream made the same way. There was a few caught on Fly Rods, but mostly Crickets was the thing. Mr. Earl Elkins was one of the many who made good catches on Catfish. He had some 3 and 4 lb. ones and then finished up the cooler with small ones. This past Friday was a good day on Cats also. For some reason the Catfish is just biting to beat the band. No one knows why, specially me. At noon on Saterday, the Madison County Bass Club weighted in their catches. One boat had 20 lbs. of Bass, they will finish up their club tournament Sunday evening. We hope they do well, we enjoyed having them here at Wingates. Maybe you’ve had enough storm stories, but here is one that will warm your heart. On Monday evening, the wind blew down an oak tree and in the tree there was a nest of Little Woodpeckers. These are the ones that’s gitten scarce. He picked them up, brushed them off and called the Tallahassee hot line for hurt animals. His wife met the lady at I-10 in Quincy, she put an IV in their arms and took them to Tallahassee. If they live, she intends to bring them back here for release. That’s heart warming to me. As we go and end this scribbling, we note that Spring Creek is out of it’s banks in Brinson and muddy. The Blountstown gauge is 6 ft. above flood and risen. Don’t know how the gov-mint can shift water, but it’s falling here on Seminole.
