Thread: Has arkansasbowhunter lost it

I am located in Texas so I have no dog in this fight BUT, I think posting waypoints that you have knowledge to is one of the best things I have ever seen done in fishing. Since crappie move so much thru out the year a person would still have to know when certain way points would be productive.
I will put myself up for adoption into the Arkansas family if you are taking in outsiders.
Sharing information I think is a great deal. If you want to come to Texas, I will show you everything that I know about the lakes that I fish.

Hey Bow, you got any waypoints for the Pine Bluff area? I been thinking about heading that direction soon.

Every since I was a little boy I have observed crappie fishermen, most notably my dad. He and his Reynolds partner would put out the beds and fish the brush. To get my dad to tell you anything about his honey holes was like pulling teeth from a chicken. I went away to Vietnam thinking he would trust me a bit more but the crappie beds were always secret. I said all that to say his, I ask for help when I fish a strange lake but I hope you folks out there will believe me when I say I have a lot better things to do then steal your honey holes. I respect you for all the hard work you put into them and do not believe in taking advantage of anyone. I have to agree with CP that if you are good, then no matter where you fish you are going to get your limit. What is my point you may ask, well it is this, the crappie camp is coming up and some folks are going to be coming from a long way off so I just hope that all the locals will share and not get tighted lipped so all of us will catch crappie.

Cmj i will try to help ya out. Uaag has the most recent information posted. The river here has not turned on good yet and the fish seem to still be in open water and not on brush or structure. The hard part about the river is they are in one place today and gone tomorrow as the fish here travel a lot. I can tell you i caught them on a brush pile and you go there the next day and bot get a bite. Ask xring and nimrod as they fish the river on there part of the statr or bigkev as he fishes just north of me. Been helping folks behind scenes for a while and do my best in the future. The river is a different beast unlike the lakes. Here in pine bluff we have no big creeks like dardenelle or bays. Big flats and drop offs along with potholes under the water. Am i making sense?

Gotcha, thx.

waypoints = darn good pair of binoculars !! lol

Bow hunter, As a previous lurker i would like to thank you for your lurker thread. It got me to thinking also and about what little I know that could possible help others who are not as blessed as I am. I personally have never fished any of the other lakes mentioned except nimrod, but have come to the conclusion I need to spread my wings and try new waters. I do not know about the other GPS coordinates you posted, but as for nimrod those coordinates are SPOT ON!!! With that said, for those who don't fish nimrod much the corp pile do receive heavy pressure. But there are generally fish on most of them at all times( although small ones may be the rule). If you back away from and circle the piles generally 40-50 yards circles around these piles you will increase your way points by 3 or 4 times. Some of these piles have seperated others have been added by others around them to help pull fish in. It works and usually the other piles off to the side will hold some better fish.
