Thanks crappiemax...ive been to kentucky and barkley both and enjoyed them. Was thinking more specifically in the state of Ohio..maybe the lakes more south than north.

Hi all...last year I got an RV in which I can tow my boat behind. I was thinking about venturing out for a trip in early April with my rig and boat. The issue is that once I launch my boat I have to...

If you are on the water in a boat you literally have a better chance of winning the lottery than being attacked by a snake at Kinkaid.

Very very tough lake to get to know for crappie. You may stand a chance at hitting it when they are relating to the weed edges and relatively shallow. If they are done spawning then it becomes a deep...

Thanks guys. Pickwick is a real interesting lake. Beleive it or not...if your in southern illinois you can be there in 4 hours and 15 minutes. Nice little drive down the west side of Kentucky Lake...

I was off this last week...and the weather forcast was dismal to I headed to Pickwick for 4 days. Caught some really nice fish. Huge lake, never been there before but really liked it. Spent all 4...

That is a good time. Some fish will be shallow. Expect alot of small ones. The lake has alot of them right now...fewer keeper fish in it now than i can remember in the past 25 years. I think it got a...

As I read rule 12 it states you may only enter the weigh in line with 7 fish and im curious about that wording. I used to fish the sica..im not even sure they called it the sica back then but i think...

duckhunter you did miss out on a tremendous fish fry with onion rings and hush puppies. We had plenty left to take home to the freezer.

Crisco. Sorry about your trip to Crab. As I posted before its just in a cycle right now of small fish. I dont know how long it will last but Rend is a better option. I camped in Gun Creek this past...

great job rodger. I sure has been a great weekend to fish...but it looks like the weather headed south today. Hope it stablized.

The world stopped rotating the weekend apparently because I went to Rend and did quite well. Was camping in gun creek and had limits everyday in a very short period of time. That 10 over 10 thing...

Looks to me like at least the west portion of it is open and cleaned up. Lots of campers in there. Now the east portion thats back in the campground neck doesnt seems to have few if any campers back...

Those are really nice fish. Im jealous. I just cant solve that lake like I want to. I have just conceded Im a bad Rend Lake fisherman. Period. Keep up the great catches!

all reports ive heard is that its on fire and depth is a wide range from pretty shallow down to 15 feet.

Thanks for the kind words! I didnt fish it through July and August at all. I took a couple of trips to both Canada and Lake Barkley back to back and got a little fished out! My first trip back to...

Great pic. Years ago I took Les to the Grand Tower Shute for a story. We got about 7 dozen minnows and it was 100 degrees. They all died by the time we got to the lake...but we managed a bunch of...

Those are some good ones. The thing that always strikes me about your pics is the quality of fish coming out of the lake. Again good job.

Good post. I used to post a report nearly each time I went but I have to admit I dont as much anymore after some of the personalities have shown up this winter and spring here. I fish every single...

You did good. I think I know where you were fishing. That spot can be feast or famine and it sounds like you hit it when it was on. I went Sunday as well and had 18 but I did have one that was 14.5...

Kinkaid has a catchable population of them but i cant catch them! You might pose your question to Al Nutty. He might clue you in on how to catch one there. His website is: Kinkaid Lake Illinois...

Im not seeing the fish come out of forbes that I did a couple of years ago....is it down?

I had to google that unit to take a look at it. It looks real similar to the 787ci that I have. I have had no issues with the unit at all. Mine is on my trolling motor up front. Ive gotten used to it...

what is the purpose of this post?

I must admit I love to eat them but I try and limit myself to a couple of times a month. I do give many away for fish fries, fund raisers, friends, etc. My latest challenge is to provide 600 fillets...

I dont have anything really worthy of donating to an auction but id certainly fork out money and buy some things if offered to make the auction a success.

those are absolutely good ones....are they any deeper now or still spawning?

Good job. Im glad my report was useful. As for the little ones....there are alot of them for sure but those are the fish we will be proud of 2 and 3 years from now.

Thats ok Scott, your turn to clean fish is coming if you go to reelfoot this weekend!
