Went fishing at Joe Pool an found some nice GILL ACTION!!! Had too much fun and man, these lil boogers sure know how to make ya think you have a much bigger fish on the line! Big thanks to Smithaven for the hook size and bait tips! Most fish were caught around 7-8ft deep using wax worms! And folks when I tell ya they work, these lil babies are like magic...Got hit on every drop!!! Tried casting a bit for the bullgills but kept getting tangled up, lake is up about a good 4-5ft!


Katchin krappie...doin surgeries(filleting)...and givin hott grease baths until krunchy and golden brown is what it's all about!!!

Petco or Petsmart should have em...if not then try the smaller bait shops!

Banker...the water was like 4ft high!!! Ive heard the dam is open but not sure! all the lakes up here are nice and full! Even Duck Cove Marina on Tawokani has about 8ft of water, it's was dried out last year with water a couple hundred yards away!!!

I fished the Marina at Lynn Creek...inside was okay but the nicer bite was outside off the dock and pitching off the back side.

Great job. We used to use wax worms ice fishing in the winter in Michigan. That seemed to be the only thing that would catch them when they're in slow motion. Either you've got really small shoes or those are some really nice eating size gills.
