Congratulations to Jeremy Aldridge and Clint Egbert Eagle Lake Tournament and Big Fish Winners. Man did they blow the field away. On a day when other teams were struggling to just catch a fish, these guys caught almost two weigh-in limits. Jeremy says, “We had 13 bites and we caught 13 fish. We never caught a small fish. Eagle is my favorite lake. I’ve fished Eagle 3 times and won 2.” Not too bad for some newcomers to Eagle.

Great to meet you guys. It was a tough time on the water this weekend for sure. the weather was terrible, but we're happy everyone stayed safe. I even hear Al lost his hat in the high winds, so I replaced it with a Crappie.com

Dan Dannenmueller uses a Johnson Fishing Shad Crank for open water crappie. He prefers to push crankbaits so he will have better depth control and ability to better follow a channel drop.
Drop-Off: a very steep or perpendicular descent; a marked dwindling or decline.
Fishermen have learned that a drop-off is where fish often live and feed. As the definition describes, a drop-off is a steep descent or decline. As in, the bottom contour of the lake dropped from 15 feet down to 25 feet. In the fishing world, the rate of decline

Earlier this week I decided to take a day off to go fishing. It's spring time, the weather was good, the bass should be spawning, and the overnight temps are perfect for camping. It's a really slow time at work and there was only a 30% chance

Yesterday I fished the Crappie Masters Media Day event with Dan Dannenmueller & Garrett Steele. The official competition for the pro's is Friday and Saturday. Looks like it's going to be a good one, that is, if the weather holds. We had a great time fishing together. We hooked into quite a few Crappie, and even an 8 pound kitty that took out three of our lines! doh
Eight boats and 10 dedicated crappie.com fishermen showed up around 6AM this morning ready for a day of fishing on Lake Harney. None of us knew what to expect as far as the bite. We were prepared for a mild morning with winds of 4 to 5 mph.

This past Saturday was my birthday, and just a few days after my anniversary, and with warm weather and bright sunshine, my wife wanted to go fishing. The strong south wind kept us out of the areas I wanted to fish, but traveling deep into the swamps of Reelfoot Lake to get out of the wind

I even got accused by one loyal reader of “padding” the fishing report, saying they were biting when they really weren’t. People were catching some good fish last week. I got good reports from several reliable sources. I responded to my faithful reader, “You can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make him drink”.
This week’s fishing report:
The fish are still biting on Lake D’Arbonne. You
