Haven't checked in here for a long while. Work has still been steady for me. I did make it out to NW River last Sunday for the crappie. Tough bite for me, but I did manage enough for a dinner. ...

Decided to hit a Suffolk lake today. Hadn't chased crappie in a bit. Good choice. They were really biting. Slept in and didn't get to the lake until 0700. Caught fish at every stop. Most were 6...

Tap, that has been my number 1 color for all our local waters for many years. I always have one of those tied on. I'll switch out with other colors during the day, but one rod always has that jig...

Haven't made any posts in a long while. Read the threads about the "funeral." I've certainly been guilty about not posting. I've made a decent number of trips this year to various waters. Some...

Hit West Neck today. Hadn't been there but once this year. Caught a bunch of dink crappie. Had to work hard, but finally managed enough keepers for dinner. Odd thing, I've never seen so many...

I was catfishing on the Northwest earlier this week. Water is fine now. Finally saw shad swimming on the surface again. Hadn't seen that since the high water/low oxygen. Strange though, not a...

Took my daughter and two of my granddaughters to Suffolk today. I knew the young ones wouldn't last long, but it was a productive 2.5 hours. I don't think we hit 50 total, but it probably wasn't...

Good catching, congrats.

I'd like to post reports, but life tends to get in the way sometimes. Been a tough year around our home, but hopefully I'll be able to get to Suffolk soon and see what's happening.

While it may not be convenient, you can always go the headquarters in Richmond and pay in person. I tried to register my last boat via mail. I waited seven months after they cashed my check but...

If you're looking for perch reports, I have one, just didn't post it because it wasn't worth the effort. The YP are in the NW, just not of any size that I could find. I fished down there about two...

Yep, same thing I heard from a buddy of mine who lives right there. Looking forward to getting back in there. I'd love to see the state start stocking walleye again!

Nice catching. I always like to see a 12" YP!

Nice going Jim.

Decided to hit Cohoon for a bit yesterday. Hadn't been there in some time. I only carried some jigs, crank baits and jerk baits. Tried a variety of jigs with no luck, just a few very light "ticks"...

Nice catching there!

Hit the Northwest River today. Fished from 0630 - 1100. Caught a lot of fish, just not the target species. The bluegill, bass, striper and flier kept me busy. On the bright side, I did catch my...

Nice catch, Tap. Did you get any bluegill as well? I've often caught some really nice 'gills in there while crappie fishing.

Hadn't been to the river in a while so I hit up some of my crappie holes yesterday. I don't normally carry minnows, but glad I did. I got all my best fish with live bait. Jigs also produced well...

Hit Meade yesterday from 0800 - 1130. Got into a bunch of fish, just nothing very big. Most fish were in 6 fow and hit a variety of jigs. Almost all of them were between 9-10". Had a few dinks...

I've been down there for crappie off and on this summer as well. I've had some fish topping 12", but most are about 8-9. Not many keepers. I've been fishing from the shoreline to the middle and...

Way to go, Mike!

The bass have been on the beds for almost two weeks. They will continue to spawn til the end of May, some maybe even into June. I, too, believe that once the carp start rolling in the shallows that...

Not to doubt you Cody, but my experience has shown those fish jumping in the pads are carp. I've seen it in that lake along with Little Creek and Smith for almost 20 years. Wait til the carp start...

Happy birthday! Those specks on yet at your lake?

Bummer. Can't make it again. I have to run a green carp tourney in Suffolk this Saturday. You all should have a great time. Weather is supposed to be awesome. Good luck and be sure to post...

I have not really noticed any difference in taste. However, I agree they tend to be a bit thicker and more "oval" shaped than their lake cousins. I haven't been on the river but once since October,...

Very nice catch! Hard to tell though, are those bluegill or shellcracker with the specks?

Welcome to the board and thanks for your service! You have already received some great info. There are many, many places around that you can fish very effectively from a jon boat. I used to have a...

Thanks for the news, Dew. I forgot to report that I hit the NW River last week. Lots of YP - just small at this time. I didn't catch any over 10 inches. I'm sure there are some around, I just...
