They'll fry up like a dream!

Thanks for sharing.

Man, those are pretty!

Way to go, thanks for sharing!

Please remember also it started as a Memorial Day to the 1,400,000 Americans that lost their lives in service to this beautiful country .................... before it was a federal holiday and...

I made a quick trip to Ditto Landing fishing in the back slough across the road from the boat harbor after work yesterday (Wednesday). I kept 9, returned 1 larger fish and a dozen shorts. Not a bad...

Yep, 1.9 in Chartreuse. Looks like everyone is out right now online!

I think I'm going to order some more of those nikko pin tail worms tonight. I want to try them bottom bouncing in deeper water this summer!

Sorry, not sure why Crappie.com sometimes rotates images. Does anyone know how to fix?

Fishies!

I returned to Swan today, thought there might be a few people fishing so I headed right to the west instead of east like usual. I caught Gills steady all morning trying a few new things. I've got a...

Lot's a Bass in the main Swan Creek area, I usually catch at least one 4 or 5 pounder every year by accident. A tough fish and tough search unless you get a good morning with a top water bite.

Best thing in there is jig and bobber, small spinners or live bait like worms or crickets. Toss next to every stick up or tree overhang. Sometimes you'll find beds and load the boat, but more likely...

Great job! What body of water?

Your spot on, the stick marsh is in the process of filling in from all the vegetation. This of it like all the leaves in the forest, each year another layer that becomes mud and silt. There's no...

John boat won't be a problem, should be good in the east end all summer, but might be only 12 to 18 inches deep at the ramp down from the equipment barn. Saturday the water was up about 12 to 18...

As you work up the creeks, toss slow sinking baits or jig and bobber deep under and shade created by trees. You'll often find Crappie, Gills, Bass and Catfish in 12 to 18 inches of water in the shade...

Without pics we'll have to write the misses off to Bluegill!

Sounds like a great afternoon, thanks for sharing!

These guys fight light a 5-pound bass when you're using 4-pound test on an ultra-light.

Gills!

I tried the Z-man Larva yesterday under a small bobber. The fish wanted something with vibration and flash, but I think this bait is a keeper for Gills, especially when you encounter fish on beds or...

I fished Swan Creek Saturday, Crappie early spider rigging with only one kept, returned 6 or 8 larger Crappie and a hand full of short fish. I spent the rest of the day trying new things for Gills. I...

Anyone work or drive by the Swan Creek WMA let me know how high the water is!

Thinking of going Saturday, but if the water is up in the buckbrush it will be a wasted trip.

My secret to shellcrackers on artificials was 1" slider in Green Pumpkin on a 1/32oz jig head. I'd twitch and bottom bounce it and catch a bucket many days. I'd hunt for them deep on rock and shell...

I love the 1" slider bodies and just bought some 1/64th oz Marabou jigs. I plan to cut the Marabou back a little and use with a bobber. It should product a tiny bait with a slow fall under the...

Little bit of everything, small spinners, jig and bobber. I tried Redworm on the bottom in the areas with beds, but only got two that way. The Largest are coming off a 1/32oz jig head with a z-man...

I've been trying different baits (mainly soft plastics) for Gills and Crappie. I seemed to catch many times more fish and just as many larger Crappie using tiny baits on light line (4-pound test),...

Another reason I fish from a kayak, no water fleas where I go!!

Way to go! Thanks for sharing!

I fished Ditto after work Friday keeping 9 Crappie and returning a dozen larger fish. All fish came off single pole on isolated laydowns.

Saturday Morning had time for a short trip back to Swan...

Some guys were bank fishing, filled a basket with Gill and Crackers. I didn't see anything huge, but lots of eaters.
