I’m gonna say up front that this will probably be long winded and picture heavy.
Haven’t fished with Phil for too long so today was the day to hit it. I had gotten two new UL 6’6” rods, put some Japanese nylon line on them both,

Started the day very early compared to most folks. Passed the park where we held the Slabfest at 5:30. Went to the Seminole County side just because it was open. First on the scene there and launched without incident and headed out into the

Might be my favorite way to eat crappie. They are dang good fried but these are really incredible. Cooking them on the half shell makes grilling them so much easier. Crappie take up a good bit of smoke flavor too. I use salt and Old Bay

My good friend Gary Fomby and I decided to crappie fish this morning instead of fighting the crowd below WB dam. It proved to be a tough morning for fishing for us although we did catch a bunch of fish.
