Hilton Head Fish-A-Palooza!


Dave Chambless of Abraxas Business Services joined Chris Clayton, Ross Mackenzie and Kevin Hendren in Hilton Head last week and came back with many "tails." Many fish were caught. Many Bloody Marys were poured. See for yourself!


Admiral Chris Clayton shows off a monster bull red!

It's a cold day at sea, right Kevin?! He says it's always
important to take care of his delicate skin!


Not to be outdone, Ross lands this bull red fish!

Our intrepid crew searches for the great white whale that took Chris' leg.



Admiral Clayton fighting a bull shark-- get him, Chris!





Bloody Marys, sunshine, water and a nap go really well together!




This one almost got away!

Like the hat, Ross!






Time to rest!

Cats do love chicken liver!

Check out this 29 inch, 21 pound blue cat that BNKJ's own Jerrod Ball caught in Carrollton, Georgia using good ol' fashioned chicken livers for bait.

MEOW!

Fishin' at Lake Sinclair

That's Kevin's "big" catch of the day
(it's not the bait). Love that proud grin!

Fishing for a Cause Tastes Good!

Rusty Bramlett and friends took a road trip to Steinhatchee a few weeks back to attend a Wounded Warriors' benefit. They headed out on the boat early ready for a day of fishing. Rusty and his crew had trouble finding redfish and trout, but WOW the Cobia and Kings were takin' the bait and filled the cooler!

Holy King Mackerel-- that's a lot of fish!

_____________________



This beautiful Cobia is a whopping 43 inches long!

This black Cobia -- another keeper -- is 36 inches!

Rusty succeeds in landing a redfish during the trip.

Nothing like fresh fish from the grill with homemade ceviche!


After a day on the water, Rusty and friends relaxed to live music from The Kentucky Headhunters at The Good Time Hotel & Marina.  Rusty, thank you for sharing the before and after shots. Hungry anyone?

Fun Fishing in Hilton Head!

Brock Patterson and Jeff Stokes -- our friends at US Trust -- joined BNKJ's own Chris Clayton, Kevin Hendren and Ross Mackenzie for a fishing trip in Hilton Head. No one came back empty handed!!

The guys tell all of us back home that what happens in Hilton Head stays in Hilton Head (what is with all the MONKEY jokes guys???), but they did share these great photos just to make us wish we had been there. Check out the great catches!!



 Brock proudly shows off his 30 pound Redfish. (Hey fish why are you BLUSHING!). Nice one!!





Kevin shows off his pride and joy of the trip-- a 28 pound Redfish!! 


Chris, are you in there??? Nice speckled trout!
Ross and Chris-- umm... is it cold in Hilton Head? 


Ahhhh... the beach is awesome any time of year!!!
