It is said that the Ouachita River, located in Northeastern Louisiana, provides one...

I was fishing along Camp Branch bridge last night till 9:30 and didnt get a single bite. Hopefully itll be better this weekend.

I was planning to head out to Smithville today to fish off the banks near the bridges. Do they bite after heavy rain?

I picked up the road runners and jig skirts at Cabelas yesterday. They also had them already put together on sale for $1.25 a piece.

Which bank did you fish off of? Got to little platte at about 6:50pm yesterday and didnt have a single bite. Might go in a few hours but the reports say it's pretty windy.

Hit the lake at 8:30PM (on a boat) and didn't catch a single crappie on the south side. Got 25 good sized perch and a few bass (threw it back since it was 12-15"). Good thing we headed back to KC at...

Going up there this evening and will be fishing off the bank at the dam.

I was just testing to see what they were biting. Everyone was laughing at me using hi-vis green line too until I caught the second fish of the day. The first one was caught by a friend's 9 year old...

I was there from 6pm-10pm. Mostly trolling back and forth along the rocks. We caught over 100 fish including two bass (one was pretty big). I was using john deere color grubs and the other colors...

I'm free on the weekends.

On Wednesday we went to Little Platte and had 18-19 keepers. It seemed like the crappie was biting on every other cast (lots of small ones). Yesterday I went to the same...

Planning to hit up Smithville this evening. Maybe Sailboat Cove or Little Platte marina.

Might head out there tomorrow. Do fish still bit in the rain?

I exchanged the rod with no problems today.

lol

I looked at it before I bought it but it wasnt as pronounced until I put the reel on. There's no other Cabela's in the area.

Picked one up from Cabela's today and put on a reel at home and the guide is canted to the left. Right now i'm forcing the reel to tighten up on the left side which is not the normal position.

InTheHills and I went out yesterday and only caught 3, only 2 keepers.

Count me in for a mini meet.

It was good meeting you GM. I need to catch a lot more tonight to make up for yesterday.
