Thread: New Crappie Club

Well then, let's try to get together at the Crappie camp and do some talking about this issue. Who knows, this might turn out to be something really great and a heck of a lot of fun. I'll be there at least a couple of days anyway, but I am a shallow water fisherman and the deep water in that lake will be new to me and how to fish it! But I am up for learning something new and eating some fillet's!

Me too. By Crappie Camp they should be in the shallows big time. For some reason here lately the crappie on Greeson and Hamilton have gone deep despite the warmer than average water temp and moderately stable weather. The past two days, we have been catching them as deep as 30' on Greeson.

I look forward to meeting ya'll at crappie camp. Even if you can't come and stay several days, at least come on out and meet everyone. After all, we're all central AR folk (or close thereof) and we'll probably feed ya some fresh crappie. If you need directions or more info, don't hesitate to call me -- 501-844-5418

A Central Arkansas Crappie Fishing Club is a great idea. Crappie Camp will be a good opportunity to get together and visit about it. When we get closer to Crappie Camp lets pick an evening when the majority of those interested in forming a club would be there and get together for a fish fry. The first weekend, Saturday the 1st or Sunday the 2nd would probably be the most convenient for most folks.

We’ve basically already started an informal club right here on the Arkansas forum of crappie.com - sharing techniques, current fishing reports and hot spots. Keep it up and we’ll have a crappie club before we know it. Members will be getting together to share fishing trips, build and sink condos and helping each other out in many ways.

Hey guys I'm not in central Arkansas but would be interested in a crappie club. It would be a good way to learn new places to fish. I plan on going to crappie camp in April. Look forward to talking more about the clup.

Look forward to it Jerry. I think its going to be a good time.

If everyone that is interested in forming a club could post the days they plan on being at Crappie Camp we'll pick a day to have a fish fry and talk about it. That will also give us a start on a "head count".

We can make it "Pot Luck" if folks will each offer to bring one dish and post what that would be. I'll do the fish and hushpuppies. We could also have Cole Slaw, baked or barbecue beans, potato salad and a desert or two. Any other suggestions?

Yes to all of that! That would be my last meal menu if I was on death row.

I would be glad to bring some cornbread salad and, or horseraddish coleslaw. In addition, I work with a older lady that makes a sweet potato pie to die for. I could have her make a few of those for us.

When we meet is not that big of a issue for me. I live close enough to drive it in a hour and a half and I am planning to be there both weekends, so I am flexible either way.

That sounds good to me. My wife and I will be there by the first weekend and will stay several days. I will make a dutch oven apple crisp for one of the deserts. We can bring anything else that may be needed.
