    Default A good start to...


    hopefully a great Lake Conway fishing season. Matt Horton and I finally got to get out in the lake after quite a long layoff. I had hoped to unlock some of Lake Conways summer secrets, but was not able to get out there very much. It will be different this fall and winter. Matt and I managed to catch over 40 crappie today (a new personal high for us) but we only managed 15 keepers. All kept fish were 10-12 inches. No real good ones. Fish were caught both shallow and deep on jigs. I got to watch my good buddy Chris (Cmj) boat probably 50 crappie on his own. Man is he a fish catching machine! I saw one guy catch a huge 2+ pound slab on a cork and minnow in about a foot if water.

    Matt and I both felt like last year was a year of watch, listening, and learning. This year we hope to put a good whoopin on them. If you are out there on Friday, you will probably see me. I am off every a Friday the rest if the year. Stop by and say hey! Name:  ImageUploadedByTapatalk1413575289.773574.jpg

    How long do you have watch, listen and learn, before you can catch a limit on Conway? Good job Matt and Matt.

    A lifetime to catch them in the summer. Not so long in the fall and winter. We put a sonar in Matts boat this year and man does that help (duh!). It is a great feeling to locate brush piles with fish on them and be able to catch them. I am new to crappie fishing, so it probably has taken me longer than most on Conway. It also helps to have great mentors who show you first hand. Also a few very patient people have answered any an every question that I have ever asked them. Thanks for help y'all! You know who you are.

    Already in the pool? I figured they would be in the timber this early? Congrats on a good day.

    Yes, it was a great day to be on the water. Very little wind and sunny.
