    Default What to do while your electric is off.


    Our power went off Sun. afternoon after a heck of a storm. We got up Mon. morning and decided we'd go fishing. No idea if the fish would bite after all the thunder & lightning. We went to a lake we tried last week. Started out pretty slow, but we wound up taking home 21 Crappie, the biggest was 10 1/2" most were in the 9-10" range. No power as of today again, so we went back to our "hot spot" and we managed to keep 15 more. Were using Thumper King Crappie jigs 1/160z & 1/32oz. long lining at 1.3 - 1./5 mph. Great way to spend some time.

    Nice job you two! Hope you get your power restored soon. What you do with stuff in the fridge/freezer?

    Life has many choices, eternity has two...choose wisely.

    We stayed in the 5er. and ran the generator to keep the fridge & freezer going. Had extension cords running all over. Power came back on last night. It was kinda fun really.
