You all should be glad to know, not a single crappie was harmed in today's adventure.
The boat eventually warmed up. The batteries all still worked. I even got the Ulterra to deploy. The sun was shining, wind cooperating, a fantastic day on the water!!
We threw some plastics and hair jigs. We tossed, pushed, and pulled minnows for 4 hours. Not a single bite from the targeted species. My father-in-law caught ONE pan sized cat.
I marked lots of fish early when I was just trying to "guide" but I couldn't get my dad's to fish where the fish were .
On the way out another boat said they only caught 2. Downstream from PP was the wrong choice for me today.
