Probably something like. "Crap, here comes that danged John Deer tractor again.".

I have always said "wind is my immortal nemisis". I HATE dealing with it. Can't position my boat right, stuff trying to blow out of the boat, can't cast where I want...etc. I get frustraited...

Nice haul! Congrats!
I just moved to the New Bern area from Henderson NC (Kerr Lake). I'm not quite sure just how to fish for 'em in these black water creeks. Any advice?

I think he meant "Aussie" as in Austrailian girl.

My wife and I fished it year before last. We caught some bluegills and some small cats. I understand crappie can be good further toward the lake than we made it. Have been wanting to go back, but...

Was planning to. Not sure now. No minnows to be found ANYWHERE in Vance county.

Your screen name about sums up my feeling.

Good Luck!

I've been told that the creeks on the Virginia side towards downstream will produce.

I've fished Gaston for cats, white pearch and bream, but not crappie...yet. I have friends who fish it for crappie though. From what they tell me, the fingers on the north side of the lake from...

Well, if you were to talk with your parents or grandparents who lived through the Great Depression, I expect you'd find out the the vast majority of country folk never felt the difference between...

Are you viewing from a company computer with firewalls? I can't view any pics from sources such as photobucket due to firewalls on my work computer. I can see stuff from more obscure sources such...

Within an hour of Raleigh, you have Lake Jordan, Falls Lake. Within an hour 15 minutes, you have Kerr Lake and Lake Gaston (both good striper lakes, and no limit on size or quantity on crappie. I...

Good stuff. I add a little to my gas every 2nd or 3rd fillup. Good insurance.

Perhaps this is your problem:
The "Quick Reply" does not have the smiley options. If you click on "Post Reply", it has the smiley options.

I see you will take these folks fishing....although I noticed no mention of bringing 'em back!:eek:

I HATE wind! My job is mostly outside too. Like Crappie farmer, I've been fighting the wind since feb. (and losing). Oh, but we have had some calm day here and there....when it pours down rain!

I agree that their punishment should be cruel, but I can't agree with the "unusual" part. I personally think it ought to be a "usual" punishment. As a matter of fact, I think it should be "very...

Ibnfishn,

I'd consider that, but my old early '60's model starcraft isn't exactly set up for it.
Guess the best I can do is charge it up most of the way with the big charger, then switch to a...

The 2 amp setting on my manual charger no longer works (6 amp still works) and I was considering getting a new charger with auto shut-off. I was considering doing this to prevent "overcharging' as...

When gas prices go up because there is a hurricane that MIGHT effect an oil rig/refinery or something in the middle east occurs that MIGHT effect production, etc., but nothing has actually happend...

Don't bother with the Nutbush area. Go to Grassy Creek area. I fish the Nutbush area regularly because it's only a few miles from home, but if I were planing a longer distance trip to get to Kerr,...

When I grow up, I want to be hated just as much as Fishdoc!:D....Just hope it's for the same reason.:eek:

Tapout,

So sorry to hear of your loss. I know how it is to love an animal that much. I lost my beloved english setter of 18 years just 2 years ago. I figure if she doen't get to heaven on her...

I tie a swivel onto braided line with my sinker, cork and bead above it, then use mono below the swivel with just my hook. If I get hung up, the mono will usually break before the braided and all I...

When I read this thread, I realized the problem with my toyota was probably that converter box mentioned. I asked a friend about it that works on toyota's a lot. He said Wal-Mart sells the...

It's the same as learning to turkey hunt to me. I went with someone who knew a little about it a few time, just to learn the basics, then took off on my own and am learning the rest by trial and...

Crappisa,
I'm a transplant from elsewhere in NC, but I've been in Henderson (work in Warrenton) for 11 years now. My neighbor across the road gets permission to fish in John Fosters (of John...

Shoer,
I'm relatively new around here, but been around long enough to realize your full of bull...make that horse hockey. So why do I have this irresistable urge to come back for more?? Very...

Yes, this could mean trouble. You will now have to buy a boat and trailer of matchng color!...oh and don't forget the trolling motor!

Jerry mentioned a good starting point. Bentonite clay might work if you can get a good enough supply and get it in the right spot. Woody vegetation should not be allowed to grow on a pond dam, but...

Good luck 'Drop. Beautiful day. I'm envious!
