What did you catch? a perch? No need for scales at that dump hole fishery.

Black Crappie. Dump hole fishery.... Really? it's tougher to fish than most lakes, but once you figure the lake out, it is a great lake for Stripers and whites, and crappie aren't bad, the smallmouth are good but tough to find. I dpn't fish largemouth, but I know some guys that do and catch some nice ones. And I didn't mention cats, and I even had the blue cat record a couple of years ago.

I have heard fisherman's corner has certified scales, but I do not know this to be a fact. Maybe give them a call.
FISH ON!! <'///><

Yea I tried them, they are listed on TPWD website for certified scales along with Canyon Bait House, but I talked to both of them and they both said "they didn't have certified scales". You would think Fishermans Corner would have certified scales since he is in the business of selling catfish by the pound, but that was his exact words.

I have a personal set certified and live in NB...give me call (as long as it's not the wee hrs of night) and I'd be happy to certify it for you.

Guess I should quit bass fishing there and try the crappie! Nice catch for sure, do you catch them with minners or jigs, I have never crappie fished before.

my dad fishes Canyon a lot and the funny thing is, he said one day he caught a bunch on minnows at one hole and they wouldn't touch jigs, then went to a different hole and it was just the opposite... go figure.
