Fished El Dorado Friday evening for some crappie. Got to where we wanted to start fishing and tied the boat to a tree while we got things situated and the kids set up with their fishing poles. Started fishing and not but two minutes had passed, and my wife says that she’s got one. Rod was bent over well and could tell it was a good one, I was thinking white bass, but then she slung a 15” crappie into the boat. Dang! One hell of a way to start a fishing trip. Shortly after that I boated a 6in crappie, and I called it that we we’re each tied with one fish a piece. For some reason she didn’t see it the same way. Overall a slow evening catching wise, but still a good evening on the water. No real pattern, caught some fish on trees, brush, and open water. Ended up with only half a dozen keepers.

Didn’t make it out over the weekend. Kept telling myself the weather was too nice for the fish to be biting.
