I have new aquaintances in Goldsboro who I'm taking fishin'.
They are as new to fishin' as we are to each other. Dad - mid 30s, and his two sons - age 10 and early teen.
Fishin' time is this Saturday, May 3. We should hit the water around 5 p.m., and fish 'til 8 or so.
Will be boating - only electric motors on boat. Thirty minutes from Goldsboro is about as long a drive as is prudent. Am thinking of Tulls Mill, Maxwell Mill, Durham Lake, or a Wilson Lake - Buckhorn, Wiggins Mill, or Lake Wilson (actually about 40 min).
Right now, Tulls is at the top of my list.
I normally fish artificial lures and love to troll small crankbaits, and occasionally rooster tails and crappie jigs. I usually cast some from the front of the boat while trolling. Trouble is, when I troll on these area lakes/ponds, I catch enough fish to satisfy me (I'm usually alone) but I don't usually get the productivity to support three, especially new and young, fishermen.
Will appreciate any and all suggestions for place to launch, and style of fishing. Any species caught will satisfy. I'll surely speak with them about enjoying fishing for the sake of being out there. I certainly enjoy it that way. But just as surely, we'd like to make the best effort for catching fish.
Thanks,
RW
