FORK KEEPS PUTTING THEM OUT... - 10/24/17 07:35 PM







Dad, Mom, and I managed to get out on the water again yesterday.

We managed to put a two man limit in the boat.

Took some shots of yesterday's catch on the table.

Got a shot of the Livewell and the finished 100 Fillets in the Turkey Roaster prior to bagging.

ACC Crappie Stix.

20 Pound Power Pro Super Slick Braid in Aqua Green with Vanish 8 pound Fluorocarbon Leader in Gold.

1/8 Ounce Pepops Grape Limeade and Grapefruit Limeade feather jigs.

1/8 Ounce Bubba's Baits feather jigs by Bill Baldwin in Key Lime Pie and LSU.

No Plastics were used and No Minnows were harmed.

Strike Zone as shallow as 16 feet and as deep as 24 feet.

They liked it on the way up yesterday just as much as they liked it on the way down.

Timber was the Primary Producer and picked a few off the bridge.

Lake Fork.

Slow and Steady all day.

What Can I say...we are Crappieholics Family. woot banana woot

It Says so on My Hoodie.

Tight Lines To All! fish

Good stuff!!! What's with all the black crappie on timber right now? We went to Pines the other day and probably caught 50 or so and maybe 1/2 dozen were white crappie. Month or 2 nearly everything was white crappie!!

I sure hope that you guys didn't lose any of those jigs because it looked like you were getting a little low. scared

How did them plates look? If you ever have an issue with the trolling motor not having power, take a look at the crimps because I added two new ones and I had left my crimper at home so I used one from your Dad. I feel like I got a good crimp but the tool used was not a crimper.

Nice pics by the way. I need that blue sweatshirt so I'll trade you for my tan one.

Nice! I'm new to the DFW area (Plano). Fork, as int Little Elm Fork? I was planning a trip to Lake Lewisville, or Lavon after work, scoot around in the yak with a fly rod. Was wondering if people paddled the Little Elm Fork? Thanks it advance! Looking for places to fish up here!

Welcome.

Plenty of Lakes to Choose from for sure.

Lake Fork down by Emory Texas about 90 minutes Southeast of Dallas.

Lavon would be a good place to Kayak.

In order to do both the pictures above I did them strictly within the camera app on the iPad.

I selected the button at the top with 3 sliding buttons next to details.

Then at bottom second button from left is orientation.

Then on Left you will see arrow with 90 degree Turn.

I tapped it twice to make picture show upside down and then hit done.

Then again hit button at top next to details.

Again hit orientation button.

Again hit the 90 degree arrow twice to make picture show correctly.

Hit Done and it will show correctly when you post.

I'll show some screen shots.
