Thanks "AJ" for the reply. Yes Sir if I was in the mood on cleaning fish at least one of those big Redear would have been "released to the grease." Side Note: Those fat 7 and 8 inch Bluegill would have gone to the grease for sure!

Nice catching, Chuck. Picked up a few crappie between showers, myself. Really slow at Lake Crook. Got them on a 4 Feather Minnow Fly I tied. Lots of fun on a 7' Chinese fiberglass tanago rod. A 12" crappie bends the rod in half. Bob

That's Awesome Bob on nailing some Crappie! I just had to feel a tug on the line so I went out yesterday. I am glad that I did because we just got another 3 inches of RAIN this morning.

Raining on and off here all day, Chuck. Supposed to be worse on the weekend. Glad I got out a little, earlier in the week. Bob

Nice fish. Looks like you will will be fishing between rain storms for awhile. Rain in the forecast for the next 10 days.
Side Note: Does a lot of rain effect sunfish patterns?

Thanks "Gitter" for the reply. All of this rain has played a big par in the patterns especially in the river and creeks. With a lot of creeks and rivers in flood stage a lot the spawning nest have be washed out and destroyed. Looks like mid summer will be the next best time for a good sunfish spawn. As for the bite it is pretty good when you find em. A lot of brush piles have been washed away causing a lot of fish to relocate. Also the strong currents in the rivers and creeks have relocated a lot of fish. Once the weather settles down the summer bite should be FANTASTIC!

After yesterday's rain I bet just about any nesting fish have been washed down the creeks and rivers. I agree with you the summer spawn will probably be the best one. I also think there will be a spawn in early October. Just my opinion.

Creeks have been running full speed for over a week. We got another inch of rain this morning and some places reported two to three inches. The good news is we are going to get a break starting Sunday. Looks like another round of showers Saturday.
