Thread: Lake Marion - Taw Caw area

He would tie up to that spot and we would fish all night using cane poles and graphite telescopic poles. Hoping to get down there soon and see if that stump just happens to still be there. It was a very good producing spot back in the day

that island is still there. Water is lower and sides are sheering off, but I’ve seen people camping there. It’s a very cool spot on the lake. DNR put out some structure across the way and there’s a few downed logs that have been there for a while

Yes. I wonder if it's still a good spot for crappie that hover around 10-20 around that structure? I know we fished all around that old stump and wore them out back in the day. I know Hurricane Hugo pretty much changed the entire lake blowing down the cypress fields and alot of floating logs

If I can get out there tomorrow, I'll try to take a few pics. My dad and I were putting around and checking out that artificial reef/structure DNR put out and it looked like fish were stacked on it (didn't have any rods and were trying to get the old '79 Evinrude running right).
