Hey , that's a good catch for a banker! Would be a Good catch for a contractor too! I was told you had seen my sunken boat. Good luck B.A.

I agree, I live only 15 miles from PP, 8 miles from Bakers Cut off. I fished the lake the first 2 years, and now I don't waste my time there. We caught very good, but the pressure made it unpleasent....

Sorry the WP bite was not good! I think they get sea sick from the boat traffic on the weekend's. Hey I found my motor! Ben found it after 1 1/2 hrs. of diving in 38' of water. Cleaned it out and it...

I may have to move my boat to Yucatan! Good job, after a catch like that you may have a new fishing partner!

Thanks guy's. I do fish all year, so I will try the 30' & even the 45'. THe 45' will be clost the the channel, should work well. There is no major creeks coming into the lake. One small ditch-creek...

This lake is an old Miss. river horseshoe lake. About 10 miles long & 1/2 mile wide. The channel is around the outside of the horseshoe, close to the outside bank & 50' deep. So there is over a 1/4...

:confused: I sink most stuff in 20'. What is the deepest I should sink structure?

You know, I thought about that, but I don't want to spent that much money on panty hose! My wife's has to many holes in them!

Those look good. I would put them at 20'. I am trying other depths, but 20' will surely work. Good luck. Sinking struture is almost as much fun as fishing.

thanks for the pic's. they are Greaaat! Are you talking about Beouf River in Richland Parish?

Does dogfood or cotton seed mill really-really help? Any other ideas?

I have had a 987 for a little over a year! I sunk this in 20' water, and the shadow behind it was over 40' long. You could even see the contour of the 16' boat 7' pallett, and 10' tin on top.

Check out this crappie subdivision! Look at my post in "crappie structure" to see how I did it. Worked great! But you should have seen everybody look at me on the way to the lake!

I thought about Gilligan too. You should have seen the people at the Lake when they saw it! Some wanted to pay to watch me sink it, but I sunk it after dark.

Caught about 60 crappie Saterday from 7am to 10.30am on a jig. When the quit, they QUIT! This one was just a little over 16". Most were in about 12' of water, at Lake Bruin.

Sunk my first boat this weekend. Just rip out floatation, install brush, add 6 bags old hard sackrett or mortar. Cut a small hole in the side & put duct tape over & float to your spot & pull off duct...

Welcome! You will enjoy the encourgement & ideas from everyone on this site. Good luck on the water. crappie cat

Lake Bruin.

It don't take much, a cinderblock will sink 3 or more. I tied 1/2 blocks on some & I tied 3 together & used 1 block on some.

I have tried dogfood, & cotton seed meal. Don't know how much it really helps. Does anybody have suggestion on how to sweeten up a crappie hole & does it really help?

This is an easy way to make crappie homes. Just push pvc pipe through old milk crates, & put a screw in if they are loose. Tie a weight & sink!

Thanks, but it just gets tought in the summer with skiers, jetskies, numsculls, ect, during the day. I catch these under piers & boathouses, and waves make for a very interesting fishing trip...

I will try both, it makes sense because the lake I fish is fairly clear, and the fish are spookey because you have to fish in the darkest of shade under the center of the largest piers to catch in...

I'm not gonna say how deep the fish are in this drum, but you can see how big they are! This is my livewell, a 55gal drum.

Looks like you had a great weekend. I went to Bruin Friday, few miles north of you, caught 25, hope you had plenty of layers on, that wind was cooold!

I fish on Lake Bruin in Northeast La. It is an oxbow lake off Miss river, with a clean channel on the outside of the oxbow. The best way to catch crappie is under the piers in 8-12' of water. But we...

I live in Rayville, east of Monroe. I would like to know what time of year is best for night fishing for bass, and how to catch them, I asume you fish the lights?

Do any of yu fish lake bruin in east La. ?
