Well even though some reports showed that the crappie had begun to migrate back to the spawning grounds called shallow water we went Saturday and still had great results. Caught 50 crappie in 20-25...

She is a serious warrior to have that kind of surgery and be out fishin with Dad in just over a month. Shows the spunk and enthusiasim our younger generation can have if they move in the...

Dapet,

Those all caught on the dreaded shiners. For whatever reason our catch ratio of shiners vs. jigs in the winter on LOP has been about 10 to 1. Love the jigs but love eatin better! LOL...

Well I am reposting this again after messing up and posting in the off section! Thanks prefers shiners for finding the errors of my ways. LOL! Went to LOP this past Saturday and Sunday. Saturday...

Thanks prefers shiners. It was a slip up. Not overly excited about catching a mess, just overly tired from cleaning the mess! LOL!!!

Fished 2/2 and 2/3 on LOP. Saturday started great. Caught 15 in less than 2 hours before the wind decided to throw waves over the bow and we decided to quit way too early. Sunday was the best! We...

Louisiana law says that if you were born before 1940 that all you need to fish Louisiana waters is a drivers license or a Louisiana state issued ID card. Texas and Louisiana have an agreement that...

Me too FishNut,

A little firmer meat but cut out the blood line and tastes like a bass to me! Good to go in the fryer I say!!!

deadwell,

Truly have not had tremendous luck using jigs in the winter. My catch ratio has been about 10 crappie on shiners compared to 1 on jigs. I have tried just about every color imaginable...

CCM,

We were fishing in 26-31 feet on the edges of the creek channels. We keyed in on high concentrations of shad and using sonar we were able to determine where fish were feeding on the shad and...

Two trips this past weekend 1/19 and 1/20. Limited out both days using the hated little shiners! 26-31 feet on the edge of the creek channels. Loaded up both days in less than 6 hours. Left...

This is such an easy fix. Lower the spillover area of the spillway. The easement will then be exactly where it is currently. The only pitfall is the lake will be a little lower, however I would...

Think positive! I WIILLL GEEETTTT MYYYY NNNEEEWWW BBBBOOOOAAAAATTTTT! Good luck!

Great catch, knew them fellers would stay deep for a little while longer. Now if it would just stay cool till I can go again!!!

Claymc, Feel the same way. We spent about 4 - 5 hours to catch a limit last year and now all day this year. More time fishing, less time catchin but you still had a great day! If these crazy warm...

Little bit of a tough day on the Pines today. Only 25 between 2 of us going at it all day but some of dem was hawgs! Had on top out at 2 lbs 14 oz. Wind was wippin pretty good so had to anchor up...

I am sure you are reading the posts about LOP. That being said they are yellow bass. Mean little devils with knives for gill plates and spears for fins so be careful cause they want to CUT YOU UP!

Bayoumonster,

Don't think it is the better fishing thing, more like luck! About 1 o'clock both days it seemed as if we either found the "SPOT" or they just turned on for 30 minutes or so. We...

Ok Jim, we are all trying to figure out the "NEW LAKE"! Come on give it up. We promise not to fish it out!

Guys, not sure what was going on but our luck was just the opposite. We caught 46 on Saturday and 48 on Sunday along with 12 of them yellow bellies. It took us from 8 a.m. until nearly 3 p.m. to do...

Well took the first two fishing trips of the year Saturday and Sunday and had a blast! We caught 46 on Saturday and 48 on Sunday. Only about 10 total on jigs, the shiners just did all the work....

Doc, thanks a bunch for the info. I know that things are a little tough right now with the water conditions, but maybe we can get these fronts to start dumping some rain on us with some regularity....
