    Default I been thinkin 2.0


    I've noticed over time that aside from spring I catch way more crappie on stumps and dead trees vs live trees. This is especially true for the Bonne idee. Anyone have a theory on this?

    If you can't answer that help me solve another mystery. Why is the corn on the end of the row always shorter?

    Corn on the end of a row gets more sun so it doesn't have to reach to the sky to get it like it's siblings in the middle of the row. Just my guess as I don't grow corn.

    That would have been my best guess also

    I find the oppisite. live trees retain more heat in the winter and more shade in the summer.

    the grass grows up to it, the coons and deer get to it first.

    Me too Jimmy, mine has always grown that way. Gene has a good point, often wondered that.

    Are the cobs shorter or just the stalks? On the other question, I am like the fish, stumped. Although I have thrown many times in dead trees, stumps and live trees, I have never caught one there. You should try catching in the water. "D"

    Stalks are for sure, don't know about the cobs. I've never grown corn this is just my observation. Next time you drive by a corn field take a look.

    And next time I'll try in the water. Not sure why I didn't figure that out sooner?? :-)
