Thread: Greenwood

Put in at the "WOOD" at around 6:30 last night talked to a couple of boats pulling out at Shriners and they both said they had only caught 1 fish a piece all day..Well here goes my mind "Oh Crap we aint gonna catch nothing"..
Boy was I wrong, motored up to the Seaboard tressell and started catching them right off the bat, decent fish too..I was shocked to say the least.Fished till 12:30 and caught steady all night.We fished till we killed off 6 dozen minnows, thats the only reason we left.
Final tally was brought 25 home(they will be cooked this afternoon with Yanks hushpuppy recipe) and probably threw back another 25 or 30 that were left to grow for another day,and also a few perch that were to small to eat and a 3-4 pound thug...
Water is still hanging around 74.8-74.2 degrees, was fishing in 22'-23' of water and catchin fish in 16'-18'..Minnow size didnt seem to matter at all they would take the big ones as well as the small.. Could tell they were hungry because over half of them swallowed the hook.Hence bringing home about 5 that I normally would let live for another day..

Its that new minnow bucket bringing you luck!!!! No Fires onboard?? You had some bad luck that weekend. Had a great time though!

I still havent bought a new minnow bucket yet..Just used the bait tank.No fires on board this weekend, finally got my Autopilot put on yesterday and was impressed with it.
I told Travis that loosing that minnow bucket was bad MOJO and he still dont believe it.
I had a blast at the clash Yank and am lookinf fordward to getting together with yall again soon and loading up the livewells.

Thanks for the report & congrats on a good catch !

sound like yall had a good time---what is the lake level like firefighter----thinking about trying to net a few before long--we usually put in at the
Shriners---thanks firefighter---nice to meet you at the clash

oh yeah--how bout that recipe yank--would love to give it a try---

Glad to see you boys got into 'em. It's posts like this one that makes me want to go myself. Kee 'em coming...keep 'em coming! Congrats on a fine catch Firefighter. Sounds like fun!

Knappy,
We put in a Shriners ourselves the ramp is good, the water is only down around 3'-4' there doing there yearly pull down.Should be good till I think end of Nov..

It isnt much of a recipie I am afraid. All there is to it is house of autries hushpuppie mix and I add canned corn and onions, and if you like a little heat I add some jalapinos. All chopped fine. It isnt much but I cant eat fish without hushpuppies.

they were great yank
