Hey folks,
Headed to Conway in the morning. Plan on launching at 6:00am near Gold Creek, but will be working the channel towards the iron bridge.
Hope to see everyone in this beautiful weather!

If Your Big Crappie Star Bound, Let Me Warn You It's a Long Hard Ride. CP
Ski - No wonder you don't have time for crappie fishing; galavanting to vacation destinations across the globe where the waters are prestine and full of mackeral Anyhow, hopefully you packed your crappie pole and fished every lake, pond, or standing water along the way. Have a great time!
CP - Be sure to represent us Arkie folks well, and good luck. If you do well enough, you might get a couple of sponsors - that would be awesome! :p
So here is the report: Launched at 7:30am after the slight rain. Hit all the usual spots and came up with 3 small fries. Then the dark clouds came in and the wind pinned me up on some trees; thankfully it didn't rain. I did try to make to the I40 bridge but decided the wind was too strong and I didn't want to get caught in it.
I'll be out there again October 9th, trying to get a jump on the "POOL".. :D
Shimmy,
Sorry about your day on Conway. It'll get better, for sure! Enjoying a three year old grand daughter on the beach for the first time. Those times can't be duplicated or replaced, so I'm enjoying every minute. Looked at Conway weather just now and a high of 72!! Won't be long now!!
