Thanks Don, got here at 2:30 this afternoon. Met CliffordN at Tommy's bout 3:30 and we went and pulled cranks, he was interested to see how it worked, I warned him my method wasn't exactly an advanced science, lol. We ended up with 2 crappie and a 1-1/2# slimer of course. It was tough fishing, but with good company it makes it a lot easier. Going to try the southend tomorrow, maybe longline with the wind or spider rig if the water ain't so rough that the baits are bouncing out of the water. Our find a cove out the wind and single pole. Ya'll have a great resource down here, hate Saturday looks like rough weather. Clifford put me on a lead for a good launch point tomorrow, hope to be out there by 7am.
