Thank you so much to all of guys for reaching out and helping. Within 22 hours or so of posting this, I hit a lake I had never fished before and had 3 CDC member phone numbers in my pocket and all kinds of reports and advice. We ended up putting in at Sparrowfoot and did OK. I got to see the fish bowl for the first time (I see where it get's the name) and caught a few in there. We tried a few other bluffs/semi-bluffs close to there and a cove or two, but didn't have much luck. We ended up with 8 keepers between us, but had a blast. I met Jared/Jigging15 and jsiles? (please forgive me I get that wrong) and both were a pleasure to meet and very helpful.
Crappie_Express .. you're not kidding! If anyone is ever in that area and doesn't know it, please be careful and take it easy. I can easily see where that could be very dangerous, very quick.
Anyway, thanks again to all of you guys .. I know the Smithville guys are great, but the last two days has shown me you Truman guys are every bit as helpful.
Hope to meet some of you at camp! Thumbs Up
