Hey TFF

Earlier last week I went out to Lake Hawkins with my son. Only been there once to fish ever and that was approximately 7 years or more and thought it would be a great place to do a exploring unfamiliar waters video. Fishing was tough but we figured out something before time ran out. Hope your like it!

It has been tough on Hawkins for a month or two. I haven't seen them schooling since early June. Good video, thanks for posting.
