On one lake that I fish, we catch our best fish by “tight lining” right on the bottom That is, casting a 1/16 curly tail jig, with a larger size split shot crimped on about 18 inches above the jig. You might have heard that crappie “only feed up”, but the truth is that crappie feed up, down, and every other way. It just depends on where they...

Welcome to the Crappie crew. :fishUSA FLAG:welcome:welcome:santa:highfive

I like the two different power rods built so close in appearance. Real nice rods. Maybe when I grow up……

My new best friend btw. I grew up in a garage, so my thoughts were I needed a large air compressor for air tools. But been in this house for 5 years, and just wasn’t getting it done. Finally went with this, and loving it. It will flat out put the twist on stuff. Cordless ugga dugga… Sent from my iPhone using Crappie.com

Things seems slow right now but they will come along. Same with you and the Mrs. Just keep your faith. Youll be fishing again before too much longer.:)

Cool pics and great memories! Wish I had some photos from the old days of the 80s. Most all outdoor polaroids we're lost in a house fire early 90s. On another note, you look just like your Dad. If not for the dates and story background I would just assume you were the same person.

Great Pic's Jim. I personally don't have any to share, but do enjoy others photo's.

5-6 would be Monday after next, or a week from Monday. If you were driving and I said take the next exit would you pass by it and keep going? Kind of splitting hairs, didn't think of an expert analysis weighing in. Think OP got the information I was trying to convey. Have a good weekend, windy and warm so far! My forecast :Rofl

Thank You All for the warm welcome, hope to be on the water soon chasing Crappie, This site has already helped me purchased a old boat a year ago 1960 Star Craft 14' V with a 1960 10hp Johnson, been in a barn for about 15 yrs. Cleaned up and put a floor in it carped, front deck with foot controlled trolling motor. Working on the motor, it runs...

Good job my friend! glad your still on them!

For anyone that has a bit of knowledge, it really is a lifetime/trophy fish because it was caught east of the Mississippi River. The large majority of redear over 2lbs come from California and Arizona. Several lakes in Florida, South Carolina and here in Western Kentucky produce monsters but usually it's Havasu or several California lakes.
