Trip Report, Kayaking Indian Creek, Lake Wheeler

[Ditch Basser]

I took today off from work and made one more trip to Indian Creek. The Crappie were everywhere and hitting everything. Most fish were in 2 to 4 feet of water, best bait again was a white Marabou jig, 1/16oz. I fished from 7:30AM till 2:00PM catching 163 Crappie total, keeping a limit. All fish were stuffed with shad.

don't you get bored out there catching 100+ fish, sheesh. Nice day for sure.

Great job Ditch! Did you stay in Indian Creek, or did you also venture into Barren Fork Creek?

Nice catch Ditch

[Ditch Basser]

Don't get upset, remember I had a slow day last week in the Paint Rock. Even I don't get them everyday!

And no, I'm 44 years old and every thump is as exciting as when I was 6 years old. It never gets boring and I pray that it never will!!

I was just razzing you DB, no insult meant at all. Sincere congrats

[Ditch Basser]

No insult taken jimp, and thanks. I’m almost sad to think that the fall feeding frenzy will slow down come December.

and when it slows i think i will try for some sauger, if they have not moved in i guess i will put the boat up until February

[Ditch Basser]

They may slow down, but Crappie don't stop. I love to hit the shallow flats after a couple of sunny days in Dec or Jan!!

I love the Dec,Jan fishing at night lol not that many fishing.Watching your corks is they glow beneath the surface and the pull of the fish seems stronger.The warmth of a small fire an a hot dog on a stick to chase away the munchies.
