After months of enjoying his videos, I got the opportunity to fish with the guy who inspired me to get a kayak. I finally got to fish with ComeOnFish! On top of that I got to be in his video! It's like a fairytale! LOL!!! 
Man what a day!
ComeOnFish, Rockchaser, Redfish12, M_Duong60 and I fished the Occoquan for Crappie and flathead catfish. I'll let each tell their story but without spoiling anything, Redfish12 has a sweet one to share!
After royally getting skunked last week, ComeOnFish put me through school, and man did it pay off! I caught 14 keeper crappie and one mighty blue gill. One of the crappie was 14" and put up an awesome fight!
Red and Chartreuse tube was the hot color (1/16th jig), and fish were biting at 5ft. I originally was using a slip bobber that Joe gave me to peg my line but it broke (I need more dock shooting lessons
), so I kept the slip knot (that Joe taught me how to tie) and used it to make sure I stayed in the 5ft range as I jigged. No joke, if I was 1.5 feet above or below 5ft, nothing bit. The other lesson of the day is low tide (outgoing). We got there early in the morning (incoming tide started at 7am) and the bite was almost completely shut off. At around 1pm or so it slowly picked up with the outgoing tide. Between 4-5pm it was hot with fish every other minute!
I finally broke my 3 fish limit on a kayak! LOL and I owe it all to Joe. In fact I owe this whole kayak fishing hobby of mine to Joe. Thank you Joe for making your videos and sharing knowledge and experience with all of us. Your generous nature and eagerness to share the joy of this great activity is sincerely appreciated bro!
Joe sent me his video and a few other pics to post (Warning: spoiler alert of Michael's sweet catch!):
