The 76S does float thankfully!

I have a Humminbird 727 and love it. The only problem I have is that in shallow water (<5') the thing goes crazy and starts reading random depths. Anyone else experience this? It's good to know their...

Slabseekers work! Just set the depth you are catching them at and reel them in. When you release the bail the bait will drop down to the same depth. Pretty cool! The slabseeker rods are another story...

I picked up some jigs while at KY Lake thsi weekend called Umbrella Jigs. They are supposed to fall 20% slower than conventional tubes. Also switching to 1/32 oz head will slow the rate of descent.

Didn't have alot of luck this weekend either. The fish really seem scattered. Only one or two on a few beds. I can't blame it on the water temp, or the barometer, or the weather. I guess it must be...

I went this afternoon and struck out. The water is warm 62-62 degrees but no fish. Fished Cooks Creek/Peter Creek. I'm going to try again tomorrow afternoon. I'll keep you posted.

I'm heading down Thurs night. I'm fishing Blood River but thought I might try some night fishing under the Jonathan Creek bridge one night. I'll keep you posted!

Talked to a gut the other day that caught several this weekend about 5-6' over stumps in 10' of water. I didn't do good at all though. I had 2 keepers. This week/weekend should be better. I'm heading...

I am going to buy a new fishfinder for the front of the boat. I was considering purchasing the Matrix 77c at BassPro since it is on sale. Anyone have experience with this one? Is the color display...

I fish Barren and Nolin!

Will the copilot trolling motors maintain the direction they are pointed? It would seem that the only advantage of autopilot would be to accomadate the wind drift.

The dinner bell is not 5 star but it is adequate and reasonably priced, or at least it was a few years ago. If you like home cookin the little resteraunt in the front is pretty good. I'm not sure if...

Allright all of you sidefinder guys. I know a few of you have recently bought the Humminbird 987 si with the sidefinder. The question is... has it helped you catch more fish? Are you able to see fish...

Feel free!

Went Wed night to a spot that has been producing some fish and caught only 4 in 3 hours!!!

Well weekend #2 nightstalking turned out a little better!!! Thanks Rango for your tips in the Nightstalking Article. See Pics!

The only thing that would've made that experience better is if your son would've hooked him. Maybe he'll get his chance next time.I'm sure he had a blast watching you bring it in and catching some...

He Krappiekrazy! What's the advantage of your two hook rig over the store bought crappie rigs with the bell sinker on the bottom? I assume the 6lb is so you break off a single leader instead of the...

I too have an Eagle Fishmark 320 and really love it. However, at high speeds the depth will go crazy and show 800+ feet. I have to turn the power off and back on to reset it. The manual says to check...

I've heard alot of people talk about the North shoreline or the North side of the lake warming first. This may be a dumb question but why is that? Doesn't the sun rise in the East? It would seem the...

Thanks for the encouragement and I am definately going again soon! I had a blast even though we didn't catch that many fish.

Night stalking must not be as hot here in KY as it is in SC. Or maybe I'm still not doing it right. I fished all night Sat and caught 6 and only 3 were keepers. I attracted plenty of baitfish as my...

I haven't crappie fished it much myself. Most of the time I go to Nolin but Barren is a little bit closer. Good luck to you this weekend.

Fishing Barren!!! Never done it before but it sounds like a blast. I'm gonna change my strategy and go Sat night. I'll let you know how it goes!

Thanks for the tip gabowman! I'll give it a shot! Let you know how it goes!

I caught six last night. They were mostly small though. Only 1 keeper. I was anchored right over a channel ledge where there was a S shaped bend. There appeared to be alot of fish on the depthfinder....

Hey Drill Instructor! Where did you find the step by step instructions opn how to build these things? I couldn't find it on crappiestuff.com.

I guess the main thing I wanted to know was what time should I start, and when should I give up or move if I don't catch anything?

I am planning on my first night stalk this weekend and need some advice. When do you start fishing? How long does it take to start getting bites? Is a channel ledge a good place, or would a deep...

I live close to the river but haven't fished it for crappie.
