and 1 swine

Team BeagleMan was Fishing out of Bell Hall Landing on the Congaree River 7-16-08. Team BeagleMan constided of Beagleman, BeagleWoman and JoJo. This trip turned out a little differently than we had expected. Fishing was slow, finding only three or four fish to the hole. We had to move around alot. The river now is very shallow, and the deeper water harder to locate. The fish we did catch had good size. Totals for the day were as follows:
73 bream and shellcrackers
7 catfish
1 Large mouth bass (caught on fly rod, exciting)
1 mudfish
And
1 swine (yes, swine, we caught a pig!)

It was late in the afternoon when we heard some dogs yapping. Didn't think much of it. There was a cabin down river and figured they had some dogs there. Well, we decided to leave about twenty minutes later and when we got around a couple of bends we saw three dogs in the water swimming. With the banks so steep in this section of fiver we wanted to check on their safety. as we got closer the dogs headed for the bank and went straight up the steep bank. I noticed something floating in the water. Worried that it was on of the dogs we wanted to see. As we got closer I knew it was a pig. It seems the dogs caught it and drowned it. Piggy was still warm (had ticks still on it). I rolled her into the boat, and to the landing we went. What a mix bag catch we got today. Surely we will have something for everyone tonight! Dogs were either wild dogs or coyotes. Two were short hair and one long haired with no collars on any. Next time we fish there I will be on the look out for them.
Also this trip we had an encounter with a polecat(skunk) not so nice, and we got to watch a bale eagle hunt for food, this was nice.

I am getting the grill and the grease hot now!

Nice catch....Thanks for sharing

that's a first, catch a hog bream fishing, sounds like a good trip to me

beaglewoman · 07-20-2008, 05:27 PM

Actually this is the second time we have landed a pig while bream fishing. First time was a few years ago. Same river, different location and time of the year. We were bream fishing and listening to the Carolina and Clemson game. Hogs came up on some game managment land and I went and killed one. About the same size as this one. I got the one from thursday on the grill now. Almost ready to eat.....

BEAGLEWOMAN, I'm gonna have to make a trip up there to see you guys this fall. I'll bring the OYSTERS and a mess of SHRIMPS too.

The pig turned out great. Fish were good too. We had all the trimmings to go with them also. Good food & Great friends, doesn't get any better....

Ace, sure come up and see us this fall. We can find lots to do. Deer hunt, I could take you to the farm and show you what the QDM does for us. It pays off big.. Tracts all the way around are QDM tracts..Also offer coon hunting, Hog hunting, Doves, fishing, you name it, we like it... Here are some pics of deer from the farm, and a shot of some antlers we have collected. Proof QDM works.... I love oysters and shrimp.. who doesn't?

I know this one i got now sucks big time. I been trying to tell Beagleman that for some time now. Thanks for the help. I wont have a new one for the next trip but I will try and use someone elses. Definatly will have new one by deer season....

Help!!! I need a place here where I can post freshwater fishing reports... If it is here already, tell me where to find it.. We fish a few days a week, and something exciting usually happens at least one of those trips...

That would have made for a cool vid I think. I got some cool vids maybe I share If we ever meet. Ace and You should come up and maybe we go catch one of those 100lb santee cats.. But bring your camera please..LMTO..

I will look through old pics I got and see if I find any good one with stories to share for now..
