Decided to bring the skiff along for the holiday festivities. Christmas eve morning looked to be the best day weather wise so I ventured out to the closest body of water for some bass fishing. Recently purchased a super stick push pole that I was looking forward to testing out. I found out that it works well as a paddle. Recent rains had raised the water level on this lake quite a bit. Had a hard time finding shallow water unless I was right next to the bank. Flipped and cranked cypress trees all morning long with no luck. Decided to pole down a narrow channel fishing taller grass banks and pulled in one small bass. Nice day on the water. One thing is for sure, it definitely did not feel like December with high 80 degree temps. I recently saw a photo on the Solo Skiff website of a dark green skiff with a go-devil type engine mounted to it. Growing up fishing and hunting the swamps in Louisiana I can say that boat would be PERFECT for this area. As always, thanks for reading and enjoy the video report.
