Thanks for the report. With the forecast calling for rain all week I'm sure the clarity will drop this week.

We didn't end up going today. Shouldn't have listened to the weather reports... Lesson Learned.

I'll be up there Thursday and will report back. If anyone is/was up there this weekend we'd like to hear from you. My guess is the females are still deep and the males will be staging

You guys are making me feel better. I'm no expert, but at least I can say I did OK compared to the experts!

We had water temps around 62 in Dry Fork and 65/66 in Sandy Creek and Little Indian. We...

That's why we made the day trip. In desperation I was on the phone to figure out what I was doing wrong and had several reports of hard fishing. Granted, some probably limited out and think I'm...

Hit the lake around 9:30 and ran to Dry Fork. Lots of boats, few fish. We put 4 or 5 in the boat, but they were few and far between. They were in 12+ FOW between 8 and 12 feet down. Sometimes they...

For those of us lucky enough to have boats, enjoy our freedom, and maybe do a little (shhh...) bass fishing :rolleyes: from time to time, come join us for a great event Fishing for Freedom. There is...

Assuming it's fluorocarbon, when you break off, you have to remove a large section. Fluoro is great stuff and holds up to a lot of abrasion. However, once it has the smallest nick in it, it will...

Mike, I think this is a "Fish Fry" Gulp! by Berkley. May not be exact, but it's what I found. I think I saw these used on Linder's Angling Edge once. Here is a Link to the Berkley item. I also...

JT - As of Sunday they were still in transition and not up on the banks (this was in Indian Creek). If you are in South Fork, I understand it is different and they may be back up in the brush. As I...

Made our annual trip to Mark Twain Lake this past weekend. Got on the lake around 2:00 on Thursday. We were working under the notion that the crappie were on the banks already. This was not the case....

I know most of the people on the forum will be headed to Truman this weekend. However, if anyone is up on Twain and you see the black and white Skeeter, stop and say hi. We'll swap information with...

Thanks for that info Beagle. I'll try the heavier stuff on one side and lighter on the other.

Thanks for the props on the holders Corey.

Thanks for the info South Point. I knew about the labeling of the rods from cat fishing on the Mississippi. Good reminder though, no one ever talks about that. I've got a couple of bluffs similar to...

My buddies and I try to get up to Mark Twain every spring in an effort to hit the spawn. Unfortunately, we never really hit it. One year we did find them shallow for one day. With none of us being...

I didn't ask the question, but I'm taking advantage of the responses. Thanks for the info. We've got a crappie trip scheduled for the end of the month at Mark Twain and I'm going to have to give the...

some time ago I had posted a question about storing minnows in a live well, or other options. I had a lot of good ideas, but nothing seemed to perfectly match what I was looking for. There are no...

It jumped like 10 feet in less than 2 days. :confused:

Thanks for the info. I'll have to check around St. Louis for some of those bags. I didn't see them at the BPS here in town. I'll check some of the smaller shops, sometimes they carry the good stuff....

I figured the guys on here would have the best knowledge about minnows and livewells than anyone else, so thus my question. For those that use minnows, is there a way to keep them in your livewell,...

I've got the BPS Pro Qualifiers (slightly cheaper than the 100mph gear) and love them. As for the spray treatment, I've found it does help, but DO NOT WASH YOUR GEAR. The washing machine will destroy...

We fished a bass tournament at LOZ Saturday out of Robin's and talked to a few of the Crappie guys that said they were doing well. So on Sunday, we met up with my Uncle up in Indian Creek. We had...

I didn't mention it, but this is on Mark Twain Lake (MTL)

It's been a while since I posted anything on the board. Hope everyone is doing well. I came across this link from Cannon Dam General Store and thought I would pass it along. It seems that the Corps...

It's been a while since I was on here, but Happy New Year to everyone. Hope to see you all on the water in 2010. Make sure you stay safe and we'll talk again next year.

Beagle, I love my Humminbird. I have a 787c2i in the bow and a 997 at the helm. I see you noted that there is an upgrade for the 797 coming out soon. Though this is true, it will NOT be the long...

I'll be down there this weekend. Fishing for green fish Fri & Sat but want to dedicate Sun to Crappie.

Thanks for sharing. We were out there last Sunday. I was bass fishing in prep for a tourney next weekend and my partner was half-ass crappie fishing. I say that because I was moving a bit quicker...

I'll throw my $.02 in here too... I have a 997. Got a bass boat and the 997 this past spring. Just like all electronics, you have to trust them to be able to use them. I don't care how good they are,...

I too am always interested in the river. Try to fish it once a week (Pool 26) but have nearly given up on crappie. Would love to find a few just to figure out the pattern.
