Thanks for the great welcome! Slamdog im sure we have met im from ottumwa. I noticed someone from grenada calls himself whitecap, thats as they say hitting the nail on the head. Ive fished it 3 different times and seen whitecaps 3 times. I could only catch 1 pound dinks, but the lure of 3 pounders will keep me coming back. Its hard to beat them southern trollers at their game. I watched a local boy on grenada trolling in whitecaps with a ocean rod, about 6 jigs tied on, and weight that looked like a baseball, he was leaned up on the bow watchin for line twitch and catchin fish. This was shortly after I said to my partner I know where they are at but how do you catch em. did I mention his trolling motor was a small outboard. Iowa has a 2pole 2 hook limit thus im brush man. I sure have met alot of good people crappie fishing all over the country and it sounds like this site will be the same.
ITS LIKE BASEBALL PITCHIN,HITTIN,CATCHIN

My wife says no guide but I can buy gas beer food besides i own plenty of stuff and can clean my own fish. If someone wanted to come to Iowa to deer hunt I can get you on 130 class bucks easy. I looking to go march 21 - 24 any of those days should work. Ive long lined a few times and slow trolled some and would like to learn more about it I vertical jig brush on rathbn lake in iowa. Im glad I found this site as Im 100% crappie fisherman I long ago sold all my bass rods and tackle and driving around that lake and not fishing isnt fair especially when the spawn should be on. Any help would be appreicated. thanks
