doens't do them justice
got on the lake around 4:00, stopped at 7:00. Went to a place I caught good fish deep last year. They were still there this year. Caught these fish in 42 feet of water, fishing a one ounce bank sinker below two hooks with minnows. It is like bottom fishing in the gulf it is so deep. The wind was great.
I caught 9 fish, the 7 biggest weighed 10 1/2 pounds.
I had 4 fish that averaged over 2 pounds.

Great Catch David.were You Fishing On Bottom.man That Is Deep If You Were.where Are You Planning On Fishing This Weekend.i Am So Excited About Fishing Cedar.i Keep Hearing Good Reports From There.plan On Going Both Days
well,, I am going over to Neely Henry to prefish. Never been, but hard too knowing in can go to WIlson and catch these hawgs. But, going anyway.
Look , I learned to crappie fish on Cedar. Absolutley packed with crappie. Just dont' expect anything real big. You will catch fish, but they most likely will average about 9-10 inches. You will have the occaisional bigger fish though.

yes, these fish were right on the bottom. Of the 4 bigger fish in the picture, the bottom fish actaully had it's bladder sticking out of its mouth. Wish I had taken a picture of that.
