    Default Sunday night on James


    Finally got back on the water Sunday night. Set up in 32' of water & put lights out at 9pm on a point above big island on McDowell side. Water was 87 degrees, fished till 1:15 when lightening & wind got scary.
    Caught 34 crappie, all on minnows. Brought home 10 for a friend, released rest. Best fish was 13.5 inches. Skeeterdude missed this trip, he's on a 10 day mission trip with our church to mexico. If ya'll have a spare minute, say a prayer for him.

    Dan - I have not heard anyone mention walleye at all. Seems like i'd catch a few under the lights every now & then, but, I've never caught one at night.

    I tried trolling a few nights on Linville where I normally catch a few but have had no luck. I know a few people were catchin some early this spring on Catawaba end, but I cant leave the crappies alone long enough to try for em!
