Trying my new Bp I put out next weekend .. Been
Getting honey dues out of the way .. But I'm itching
To get out there and try my new homes ..
Ketchin nice going brother you always seen to
Amaze me .. Nice. Job !!

How deep did you drop the bamboo?

My health was such this past year that I was only able to add the three porcupine fish attractors to my slip area.

Once I get back on the lake I am going to try to add some brush piles to Joe Pool. I found several places with a small amount of structure and fish where I think a brush pile would help concentrate the fish more.

I haven't decided if I am going to add porcupine fish attractors or use natural products such as bamboo to build the attractors.

its all good brother
i will post up some more of this story later
got a few nice fish pictures and some techniques yawl might want to try
i know this pattern has been simply deadly everywhere we have been for the last month
todays fish were very nice ...i actually got my line broke 4 times today
after 2 times on one rod i decided it was bad 8 lb line
then i proceeded to break off twice more on a fresh roll of 6 lb test
quite a trip for sure ....
bet the boo pile is loaded flat up to the hilt in the next day or so beyond imagination
i will be back to finish this fishy story later ....

Can't wait for the info on tech and patterns !! Thanks

Looks like you got into em. Good job!

Another great trip, WTG Ketchn!

Nice

thanks yawl I have like 50 pictures loaded up ...
it was slayfest in the WOW category for sure
tons of legit fish involved
I am out of town though in a bit
here are a few more photos to hold ya over
and for sure ....KABOOM

Dude, you got it going on. Nice slabs.
Don't it feel nice when you hit the nail on the head like that.

sorry for the delay ....it was long weekend for me
anyway the fish were all in the lower water column that day
most bites were about 3/4 of the way down in the water column
don't know that any of the crappie actually bit hard enough to "feel" the bite
I pitched a 1/32 oz with that MR FRY though and it falls VERY slowly
lots of slack in the line and just watch for a tick
the largest fish were within about a foot of the bottom no matter the depth
7 to 12 fow was the target areas and the fish did not cooperate much til the sun got up
the bite got better as it got hotter and the sun got higher
pretty typical summer pattern
when I left at lunch it was a pig fest in ANY shaded areas ...docks bridges trees etc
everything was released and the numbers of fish were very high
overall size was very notable as well
I should return to that spot this week a few times ....
I will be draggin some TFF folks out and see if we cant load up on some fillets for them
KABOOM

and to think a brim would try to eat a bait this big ....?
SIMPLY AMAZING

2 thumbs up on the Zombie Juice MR FRY for sure

thanks man
managed quite a few fish in a 4 hour period ....
set sum condos and go to ketchn like ya mean it
ketched me a black bass and a sandy as well a few gills along the way also

and even ketched me a drum as well

and of course sum kinda ridiculous number a crappie fish as well

some as shallow as 7.5 feet and trimmed the noticeable leaves off the surface
some around 12 foot deep .....
in joe pool I would be setting them much deeper though
and fresh green leaves from willows or bamboo drag crappie in like a magnet ....
