yesterday was one of those days , a bit windy but beautiful to say the least . I tried in the trinity at lunch for a bit for crappie . I got something to sink my float and hooked up for a second , I think it may have been a bream . so I took out a pc of my breakfast bagel and chummed in a few kitty fish . I figured well at least I can feel something pull on my rod a bit ! had 4 takes hooked 3 ....mist one and about lost my dang rod ! boy the one I mist hit like a train ...ketched me offguard for sure

Sounds like you had to work for em.  Good job on finding what you caught!  Also love those Catfish fights on light tackle.

Glad you managed a few crappie last night. I went out to test my boat/FF and drop some more piles and then hit the LL 35 bridge but only managed one bite in a hour or so.
Don't feel bad for me though, feel bad for my partner. He didn't have a single bite.
Good job Ketchn and hope you can take a little ribbing. Hope the meet you some time and maybe drop a jig or two.

Ketchn do you think those catfish are liking eggs for lunch we think they do in fact eat craapie eggs ..... my buds just killed the living you know what out of them crappie fish at tawokoni last weeken and they were in very shallow timber ...3 fow ....every other fish was a channel cat in the timber with them .... seems to be a reasonable assumption it aint just carp eatin eggs ... this would be one of the reasons crappie slam jigs in the beds as well .... we even think bream do a bit of it as well ... lots a egg eaters havin fun right now up shallow with them crappie
