LOZ - Slack Water - "It's like a box of chocolates..."

After getting skunked Thursday on Truman, I decided to take Amy down below the dam for a mixed bag of fishing excitement. The water was flowing when we got there and within minutes of dropping the rigs in... BAM first fish was a 14" cat and it got tossed back. I hit all my way points with one keeper crappie happening 30 mins in. Then Amy hooked into a 4 lb catfish that blew her mind! We boated 1 dink white or striped bass, 20 dink crappie, 2 keeper crappie, 1 channel cat and 3 blue cats ( blues were all 3-5lbs) and an 18" spoonbill. I know crappie are in the area and I know it's a mixed bag out there. It sure as hell beat getting skunked the day before! :biggrin

Good thing it's the banks and if you stay in 16 FOW you won't get into many trees or brush. Damn it, not tree steaks for me!

A mixed bag is great fishing. Those bigger cats on crappie gear can be a hoot

A dog in the boat is worth 3 in the tree. :Rofl
