I plan on hitting these lakes with my kayak over the course of this upcoming week. Any general launch location that would put me in a good area to catch crappie? What depths should I look for?

I...

I have been away from this forum site for a while and now moved to/stationed in VA. With the saltwater season coming to a close, I wanted to try some freshwater panfishing. I love eating crappie,...

I fished last Sunday for perch using both worms and minnows...results- 9 catfish up to 20 inches. I assume there are more perch migrating upstream to spawn. The weekend before- 12 whites, 3 yellows,...

The other day I was fishing off a dock with jigs. since the water was rather choppy I decided to leave one rod with a jighead and a tiny shad under a float in the water while I cast my roadrunner on...

I went out today in a small private lake and managed to catch 5 keeper (8.5 or better) crappie and released another 4. Funny thing was, I didn't catch any keepers trolling around but instead catch...

Good to know. Being in the military now, my leave periods are limited. I want to fish as much when I can.

Will crappie bite well in the winter? How many days will it take for the bite to recover after a cold front?

Would live minnows be better or lures for the cold weather?

I caught these 2 Bull bluegills at scout camp lake this morning. 94466944679446894469
all on a white body beetlespin with red dot either 1/32oz or 1/16 jighead with all its paint scaped off. I think...

For me, a slab is a 13 inch crappie because that makes the top 3 biggest ones I have caught so far. To me a quality size crappie would be 10- 11 inches

thanks. now that you mentioned that, I do happen to know someone of that last name from SC also going there too.

I know SC allows military men and women to fish without a license if they are home on leave.
Exactly what is defined as home on leave?

I will be attending the US Naval Academy next week (plebe...

What do you guys consider a keeper size crappie?

quality size crappie?

a real slab/big one?


I like them to be at least 9 inches- I know SC is going to have a 8 inch minimum size

What lures work best for casting to bream?

also, is it more productive just to float the lure without much movement?

I have caught a bluegill and a shellcracker casting a small 1/16 or 1/32...

I must have caught some huge spotted sunfish- Florida's state record is .8 pounds. the first one I caught went for 1 pound 2 oz.

Maybe the ones in my area just are not red-eared-tricky little bream. Now the size of my catch is less impressive..... shell crackers average bigger- I was told?

What is the best beetlespin pattern?
also size

for bream? for crappie?

more- one fish- caught today. I caught some good 8-9 inch dark coppernose bluegills, but this one was considerably bigger and had an elongated body- ear wasn't really red though....

I have caught 3 big bream that all went for 11 inches in the past month. I know redears naturally average bigger than bluegills and was wondering if these big bream were actually bluegills?...

I caught was at a 50 percent hook-up to landing rate trolling the lures at over 120 ft behind the canoe and want to now how close can I set my lines and still caught fish. I figured if my lure was...

Will rowing the canoe scare fish? How close to the canoe would be a good distance?
How could I troll with live minnows?

Is it possible to go too fast rowing while trolling for crappie?

I...

I was fishing through private lake today trolling with jighead. grub combos some with and without spinner arms. I hooked up 6 crappie and 1 bass, lost 3, and landed 3 crappie and that 1 bass- all 3...

I was told my a guy off a boat at dargan's to use the smallest minnow available. I just use a 2 inch minnow about 4-5 ft under a bobber-slip float. The morning crappie bite is usually gone by 10AM by...

I would suggest Dargan's pond on the other side of the street half a mouth south of the Lowther's lake access.

Even from shore I have had decent luck for crappie

any size to the bream?

Any SC regulations concerning canoes?

pfd's?
whistle?
any other gear


also, does this only apply to public waters or private as well

they feed on algae

I think they taste pretty good. I heard they can live in the SC climate perfectly fine

Anyone know any public places stocked with tilapia in this state?
a tasty exotic fish

I might check out Darpo sometime. Only problem is, ever time I head down to that direction I am going to Camp Coker- scout camp with a very good bass fishing lake where I caught my top 3 PR bass.
...

What are some public areas for shore-bound fishing around Florence and Darlington?

other than:
Louther's Lake
Dargan's Pond
(been to both)


Lake Redwing?- I see in on Google Maps- anyone...

Next time if I do fish after some heavy rainfall I am just going to paddle around and fish for bass for fun.

For some reason, unless I am fishing in basszilla territory (location where I know 5...
