took lunch break like almost every day .....
down at the river ....
took me a bit to figure out the presentation ...
i got bit a few times by some little fish early on
and they didnt want my Silver Flash !
they wanted a lil rascal at first in i think its called texas thunder ?
red/orange on a pink head ....
got tired of the little fellas and thought maybe something bold
in a larger size bait will find me a larger crappie fish
a stinger bait from Thermocline in an Electric Chicken
started getting hits and action on every cast !
and as always ....
to be continued ...
and ...

Went for a few hours saturday morning and they wanted the char/orange Cajun cricket. Found a little fat black crappie.

i bet that was the ticket brother ....the electric chicken is a pink body and a sour apple tail
i ran it on a 1/16 oz pink ball head about 5 foot under a fixed float...
UNTIL ...a biggun broke my line and took my set up
i didnt have anymore 1/16 in pink
so i opted for a 1/32 in green with my last Electric chicken
only had 3 with me and one broke me off and one took my plastic right off the jig
i managed about 20 to 25 with several ok pretty nice size white crappie
one ok size black bass and lost bunches due to my setting the hook VERY lightly with 4 lb test
ketched a few black crappie and one mohawk as well ...but....
i sure need to go back to 6 lb test brother
that little 6 foot rod and 4 lb aint what it takes for them long casts and out of town hook sets for sure for me .....
but i managed a few and played them back to the bank CAREFULLY
and as always ...

20-25 aint bad brother!

I have found that Thermocline electric chicken to work quite pretty good for me also.

yes sir there was something about orange / red / pink / chart ....that was the ticket today
those in different combinations got bit well
I missed and lost as many as I ketched by the way brother
no real whales made it to shore , but lots of legal fish got to get their picture taken today

if I had my Bonehead 8 footer rigged up I bet I could have topped 40 or better brother
once I figured out what they wanted it was bite after bite
I walked in from the other side with my little 6 footer
my 7 and 8 sat in the truck ....
ding dong ...I kinda knew better
but it was fun trying to lose them on 4 lb test for sure
