    Default Another late chick afternoon. Oh C-Rex!

    Rapp and I hit the Chick late this afternoon again. We started fishing about 3pm. A few nice fat crappie mixed in with the 1.2 billion gizzard shad. Today the guys fishing from the dock were the hot ones. Everyone was catching. Rapps first fish was a bull. He was fighting it and it was pulling like a 3 pound catfish. I laughed until I saw the fin. A big fatty crappie. About 13.5".



    He did that too me few more times before I got to catch one. I did fill the throw net with gizzards a few times. So, by my count, I kicked his butt.



    But the real story was not us. Saw a family out there. Mom, Dad and a cute kid.





    And then it happened. Bubba with a Bubba.







    Nice afternoon. Was a nice break from yelling at the kids.

    Nice ones. I saw those two boats out there as I was leaving. For a second when I first saw the Tracker, I thought Bill was out there.

    Glad you guys got out. Howard, that's a nice crappie for sure

    When Gayton called me yesterday the wind was already blowing a gale at my house. Looks like it was still pretty calm @ your river.

    Daton, congrats. on filling your throw net

    Nice YP Bubba. Imagine loading the boat with that size? I fished a green carp tourney in Suffolk yesterday and was also treated to a couple of bald eagles. Great pics!
