Okay guys, I have to go again to Shreveport this week for work and I have been tired of passing up all those signs to Fork, LOP, Caddo, etc. so this time I am going to stop by and catch me some crappie. I bought a belly boat, made it's maiden voyage on Sunday and it is loaded up in the truck. Question is, which one do I stop at to try my luck? Give me two suggestions because I will be stopping tonight and then on Saturday morning.

Please remember that I will be in a float tube so will be looking for bridge pilings or other easy fishing structure. Please also include as much details as you can such as;

1) What bridge and where can I park close by.
2) Favorite bait/color to use.
3) Suggested depths.
4) How should I hold my tongue to make sure I can catch a few (I fish Lewisville so I deserve at least one good day this year).

I will also be hitting a few casinos so send me $10.00 and I'll bet a hand of Black Jack or a number/color on the roulette tables for you. If you win, I'll mail you your winnings minus my 10% cut. Trust me.

Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

There are Gators in those waters in Caddo and Caiman in Fork. Bellyboat?

Duly noted. I'll wear a cup!!!

I've started finding fish in 12' here on Fork. Use an Electric Chicken or at least a pink jig head

I'd wear steel toed shoes too!

Thanks Todd. Where you at? I would like to stop by and pick up some jigs.

Looks like you got the answer to #'s 1, 2 and 3 so for a 10% cut of your winnings I'll give you the answer to #4.. lol, good luck.

Nitro, if I was in town, I would give you the money. I can't help you on the spots, I haven't fished out that way in a long time. As far as a cup goes, you should bring your own. Don't borrow one.

WARNING!!! Do NOT let this guy near your home or your home lake. He is like a stray cat, once you feed him he will never leave.

Ron, my son said you can borrow his cup he used during his T-ball days. Hope you get the info you asked for buddy.

If you are going to Shreveport I would assume you will be heading east on I-20. What I would suggest you google up Google Maps and make a note of some of the lakes within proximity of your route and give em a try.That`s what I`d do It couldn't hurt

Ron stopped by earlier, picked up some baits and some info, he sent me a couple of texts, a large catfish and then a very nice slab

I didn't offer to feed him

You done messed up Todd...He will be back for sure...Maybe he will keep his hands out of my stash of Thermocline lures now. Thanks for getting him fixed up. Safe travels Ron. Keep it between the ditches.

Don't let Spro kid you Todd, the only reason I stop by his house is because his wife makes some dang good Cajun vittles. If you tried some you would never leave as well.

Well, I guess he is somewhat right but there is a good reason.

Next time we'll have some grilled shrimp ready

What's Spo's address, love me some Cajun food

When she cooks its in very large pots so your welcome over anytime Todd.
