Well I haven't posted in a while but haven't been able to go much since football has started. Went out yesterday evening a couple hours before dark and caught lots of little ones. Only had 2 keepers. We were fishing rip rap in 3-6ft with mikes custom baits pump chart and blk chart. Hopefully I'll get out this weekend. EB
Regardless of the 3 perches fate I think you should free Willy- we need his super minnow bloodline in the okie waters gene pool. Imagine fishing with super minnows like Willy- heck, 5 or 6 of those hardy rascals might last you all day- put the Arkansas minner wholesalers out of business!
All 3 perch and the super minnow were released.

It was the right thing to do Steve. Guys- the Free Willy petition will not be needed after all.

Well i got to go out and fish for a couple of hours yesterday evening. Ended up catching a few but did not have any fish that were bigger than 10-11 inches. I was pulling jigs on natural bank in 6-7ft of water tried some deeper stuff but they are just not there yet. I was on the north end. EB

Been fishing the dock here in Arrowhead Estates and getting an occasional bite, but its been slow. Not sure how well anyone else is doing on other parts of the lake. I do occasionally see guys fishing the culvert in Crowder on highway 69, but haven't stopped to talk with any of them. I think with cooler weather the fishing will get better, hope so.

Fished for a few hours Saturday morning at our dock. Had one sandie and one little kitty. Not a single crappie for the day. Think it's time to change out the cedars and prepare for winter fishing. Dropped the tarp wind block and tested out the propane heater I picked up from another forum member earlier this year. So I'm ready for some cold weather on the dock -- just hope the crappie are too.
