I don't know yet  I've had some of the worst fishing lately!!!!! Belinda said why don't we try a smaller lake, wouldn't it turn over quicker??????? Made sense to me, so on 10-7, Friday, we set out fish a smaller, local impoundment. We had 13 in the box when the storm hit, beached the boat and sat it out in the truck. When the lightning and the heavy ran moved past, we got back out. Ended up with 40 keepers and probably 100-125 dinks. Nevertheless, it was a GREAT improvement   Red Snappa and I had already had plans to fish another smaller lake on Sunday. The morning was very brisk, but the fish were willing to cooperate       Travis had told me that the fish on this lake preferred smaller baits  Boy, was he ever RIGHT!!! Larger presentations were ignored, But the smaller baits made for an absolute THUMP fest!       To be continued

Nice, I can't wait to get back to Graham and try the coppermine color again. I now have it in every model you make. Thanks for the post.

Sounds like a great day...we're looking forward to the get together!
The driving force and secret desire of every bass fisherman, is to one day be a crappie fisherman............Could it be that the good Lord just smilies and looks the other way when a fisherman tells a lie?

Great report, I went to this lake after years of hearing of it, I was impressed by the ditch pickle population and after Red Snappa reports recently I am ready to give the crappie a try. Nice pictures, I've been looking for a piece of lake property for sale in that area.
