We went out to Jordan on Sunday morning to fish the old areas we used to slay them in. We had the worst day of Crappie fishing since we litterally started Crappie fishing. We caught only 10 fish with...

Chris, happy birthday man.

We do both all the time and many times BOTH at once. It is all about how you set up your rod/rigs. We fish as many as 22 rods at once (10 long line out the rear... 12 spider off the front) and catch...

Crat, if they get any bigger for you .... you will have to get your whaling license. Congrats on hooking a true monster... I can't believe you let it go!

Well today was the maiden voyage for my new set of 10 BnM prostaff trolling rods (from good ole Monk). I fished them long line and tight line. I had never used rods longer than 12' before today but...

Many line counter reels do this all the time. I have many Diawa line counters and they all do it at times. I guess I'm so used to it that I automatically give them a slight roll back every time I let...

Line out the back varies greatly depending on the weight of the baits and the depth of the water and how deep I want them to run. I usually run them at 25 to 50 feet but have done as long as 80 feet....

I like and need to know the exact length that is let out to achieve a consistent depth with whatever style and weight of rig I am using. I also take out novice fisherman friends from time to time and...

I have the Diawa's adjustment spool tension knob all the way loose... heck I even took the spring out of one of them and they still won't feed out without some help. The clickers are of course turned...

Which model Okuma's?.. there are several makes... nccrappiegirl

I currently use some Diawa ADP17LC's which are really nice but I have one complaint. I have to assist getting the line out by hand usually or it just sits there. I am wondering if anyone has found a...

Great job Chris and congrats on 2nd place... I figured you would be out there. We just finished the stern installation on our 12 rod monster rod holder system and I'm ready to hit High Rock when you...

Well we have only been fishing for Crappie for less than a year. Anything north of 15" to us looks like Moby Dick at this point. We finally caught a 15 inch plus Crappie yesterday while trolling but...

My question is this... what size Crappie (length and or weight) is big enough to be considered a trophy worthy of mounting? Have any of you guys ever had one mounted?... If so how big was it?...

Chris, wow just wow... you are now officially the king of flatheads! I just sent you a PM and can hardly wait till we get after them big cats on High Rock with you.

Great looking boat Boyce!!!

Boyce, congrats on a great family outing in the new boat!!!

Chuck, thanks for the fishing report.

Chris, you are the MAN!!!! I am beyond turning green with envy. Give me a hollar next time you get ready to get after them flatties.

I'd love to see that diagram of the double rig with the triple swivel if someone has it saved somewhere.

Chugbug, was Skeeterguy using single or double rigs while tightlining? Minnows or Jigs? If jigs... how was the rig designed?

It seems from reading many posts lately that some of the fish are starting to move back a little bit into the deeper waters. My question is this... at what point do you switch from long line trolling...

Well I sit here this morning unhappy and with a frown on my face. The weather forecast predicts 18, 19 and 16 mph winds for the next 3 days. I have really been enjoying the success of long line...

Boyce, congrats man on the new boat and I know you will love all of that room on that boat.

I don't think there is such a mandated set of rules from the state. Before we got a boat we used to fish Little River lake (a Durham county lake) and there were no size or quantity limits at all....

Chris, glad you guys did alright first time out long lining.

Well we only fished for 2 hours and 15 minutes this morning before my spouse had to go to work but we caught 85 with 10 keepers. We had 2 quadruples and too many triples and doubles to count. My...

I just don't know about that long line fishing stuff... I just don't think it works.

Boyce, sounds like fun... but I still don't have lights yet for the boat. You tie up to the bridge and vertical spider rig?

Chris, congrats on the new PB Striper... it's a monster for sure. I been wanting to learn how to troll for Striper... you'll have to give me some instructions when we go after them flatheads soon.
