Planning on hitting the Little Maumelle at sunrise. gonna be cold.

Good see you back Chris. Looks like you've still got the touch. I'm still fishing the Little Maumelle consistently through the winter and doing pretty good most days. Miss seeing you spider...

Dang Goocher you're alive! Good to see you're around and kicking. Don't know anything about Ouachita. I'm still slugging away at the Little Maumelle. Catch 'em pretty consistently. Hope all is...

I fish the LMR regularly during the winter and do consistently well on the lower end. I'm to a point I don't even try in the summer. Get tired of being blasted out of the water monster wakes.

Same story on the Little Maumelle this morning. Biggest one was probably 6 inches...maybe. I've been catching nice crappie there so they gotta be somewhere.

Hey Daf - yeah I do stick to the lower end most of the time. usually it's a time thing. I have a couple of hours and that's the most convenient.

What has happened to Gooch Chirs? If you're...

Hey Chris. Good to hear from you. My trips are all sunrise to 10 or 11 a.m. Haven't had a chance to try the afternoons. I've gotten in the habit over the winter of going early. Are you still in...

Saturday morning early caught four good slabs each hitting just shy of 2lbs, 4 feet deep in 6 feet of water clost to bank. Then it shut down and not another bite. Back this morning and not a single...

I've fished it regularly through the winter and have consistently caught fish around lay downs brush piles. Never huge numbers but usually fish two to five hours in the morning and keep four-eight...

Fished Saturday morning starting at dawn for about an hour and half between I-430 launch and marina. Caught 12, kept six nice fish. Biggest was 1.12 pounds and full of eggs. I think they're...

Crappiepro thanks for the insight on the upper part of the LMR. I've been up there but not fished much. Seems I always get hooked on the lower end. Went Sunday morning early. Caught between 25...

Awfully quiet board. The Little Maumelle River stays consistently productive. A lot of small crappie but over the course of a couple hours Saturday morning kept six nice slabs. Caught close to 25...

Don behave yourself over in Tichnor. I've missed bumping into you up on the LMR and Lake Conway.

Happy and safe holidays to all.

with the wind today like it is I believe it's a good day to stay put and maybe finish up a little Christmas shopping.

Caught six beautiful crappie this morning between 7:45 and 8:15 a.m. After that not another bite. Biggest was 2.5 pounds. All caught at 10 feet in 14 feet of water. Caught a half dozen little...

Mostly the lower between the marina and I-430. Haven't been in a couple of weeks. Boat has been in the shop. Will be out there this weekend.

From the looks of things I need to plan a trip down...

LR Joe where did you go how did you do? I've been fishing the LMR the past couple of weeks and doing pretty good just tying up to a laydown and being patient. The fish have been moving through...

Jerry - congrats to you and your brother. Incredible fish. I don't think I've ever seen a 3 pounder. Thanks for sharing.

Don - good to hear from you. Yeah, every word from is a negotiation of sorts. Fortunately I only hear about it and am not directly involved. Hang in there. Hope your fishing time picks up. I'll...

Don't have any pic's but fished the LMR Saturday and Sunday mornings. Things have picked up nicely. 6 Saturday morning and 8 Sunday morning on rosie reds. Depth all over the map 4 feet to 12 feet....

Good looking fish Chris. Thanks for sharing them

Chris - granulation tissue sounds more like a disease than a parasite. I'm off tomorrow (Veterans Day) and am planning on going up to Gold Creek at sunrise if it's not coming a deluge and will keep...

Good looking fish Jerry. Thanks for sharing the pics. We should consider having another get together at Cane Creek this November.

Thanks Chris. PM back at you.

Thanks LR Joe. I've been up that way but am really not familiar with the area. That's a long way up the LMG, where do you normally put in?

LRJoe - the lake at the Ranch? I've heard of this but don't know exactly where it is. after you pass under the Pinnical Valley Bridge how far is it up river? Do you go beyond the big waterworks...

Nice fish Chris. Thanks for the report and excellent info.

Stumpy - what's your boat look like. Probably saw you but didn't know you. I'm a 15 ft. Alumacraft with a 25 yamaha. Holler if you see me.

Chris - ask Darryl and he'll tell you my wife, Fran, is very competitive when it comes to crappie. I tend to do more "guiding" when we're fishing together. She's all over it...make me a lucky man. ...

Nice lookin' "three" Chris. I suspect they're beginning to move up into the river. Gotta go to Detroit tomorrow for a meeting and won't be back until next week so maybe by Halloween they'll be on...
