good luck tommorrow!
well got all my xmas out of the way yesterday so thought i would take advantage of this awesome day and go fishing! went out to maple leaf, water temp was 39 deg. a bit choppy (alway's is ) caught 2 little 8 inch crappie in 3 1/2 hour's... fished all my spots and fished the timber shallow, deep, by the channel, and nothing! decided just to cruise a bit and learn the new fish finder crappie chatt is letting us borrow i was in 12 fow and graphed a ditch that went to 18 fow and fish were stacked up in the middle of it, so i threw out my bouy... rigged up 2 rod's tandem rig and went to fishing. dropped down and wham, caught a little 8 incher, then on my other rod one whacked it, another small crappie.... thought alright im on to something, fished another 30 minutes there and nothing! found another ditch with fish, but could'nt buy a bite! but what a awesome xmas day to be on the water! there was one other boat out there and he was bass fishing and obviously wasnt in the xmas mood, lol... hope to hit truman tomorrow! you retired fellas better take advantage of this awesome warm weather were gonna have this week! (well for december it is:D)
why do today what you can put off til tomorrow, go fishing instead!!!
good luck tommorrow!
Sounds like a nice relaxing day, hope you get into some good ones tomorrow.
Your in my territory catch them 8" crappie Jeff. You'll be back on them at truman tomorrwo, good luck
Sounds like a good day......glad you got out.
We do not want the gift of a fish; neither do we expect a lesson on fishing; what we direly need is a chance to fish
Great weather, new spots, didn't fall in, sounds like a good day.
Always a nice day to reflect when you're by yourself on the water and in the boat regardless what the fish do it's still a good day.
