    Default Annual Thanksgiving Road Trip


    My son is a school administrator in NW Arkansas and he gets Thanksgiving week as vacation. We are both fortunate that our wives gives us a hall pass for the days leading up before Thanksgiving. So we hit the road to chase down slabs. Now on to the fishing-we spent three days in NW Louisiana and fished two separate lakes. Have not fished for crappie in current in a long time - one of the streams had plenty and was loaded with some really nice fish. Fished Bobby Garland baby shads in 2 - 12 ft of water. For the most part they pounded the jigs - finished the trip at Lake Caddo. The numbers at Caddo were not quite as strong as our first stop but real quality fish. Name:  Resized_20191125_135351.jpg

    Nice fish looks like you had a great trip. My wife has a sister in Prairie Grove. She also worked in the school system. She taught first grade for years and years.
