Lake Blackshear Report

Got to the lake just at the break of day but things started off bad luck. I first stopped at Arrowhead Bait and went to get my bait and gas and my debit card wouldn't go thru but I knew I had it in the bank. Went over to Striplings and card worked. Go figure. Got on the water and at my first stop I cought a decent sixe crappie right quick. Was excited but didn't get another nite. Decided to bream fish cause of large may fly hatch and all I could catch was 2 eyes and a wiggle. Decided to fish for some catfish. Thru out my stinking peanuts and went to fishing and my darned anchor support broke off. I then dedcided to pack it up and get out of there. Did stop by Radz over by 280 bridge and Fredirica told me that the crappie are definately bioting. A man stopped in there yesterday and showed her 25 large slabs he had cought. Also Tony Allen of A&R Jigs told me that his friend had an excellent day a couple of days ago. Even with all the bad luck I had I still enjoyed the time out on the water.

Thanks for the report. I hope to see a few of those slabs this weekend some time. Boat traffic will probably be a hassle, but I got to try it.

SR, get there at the break of day and you should be alright for the first 2 to 3 hours...maybe even later than that if the weather gets cool enough at night. All you should see during that time would be fishermen.;):)
