An overabundance of green on the radar and even more black in the skies didn't look promising. Nathaniel and I had enjoyed good success catching redfish the previous day with Capt. JR Waits and had gotten some nice photo work done, so calling Day 2 a washout and starting the trip home wouldn't have been a total loss. Still, it wasn't raining YET - not very hard, at least - and I sure do enjoy fishing on the Santee Cooper Lakes."Maybe we could just try right there in the cove?" Kevin Davis offered, pointing to a spot not 100 yards from the dock at Black's Camp. "Then we wouldn't be too far away if it really started to pour."
That was good enough for me, and I sure am thankful for Kevin's proposed plan. We ended up catching four different kinds of fish, including some nice crappie, all within sight of the dock. It was a fun and productive day, the skies actually turned clearer as we fished, and Nathaniel got his first taste of Santee Cooper fishing - not to mention the fabulous lunch buffet at Black's Camp.
