Steve,
Thanks for the reply. Will keep the creek channel in mind. Is the channel better on the North end or closer to the dam?

Took my son night fishing - our first time to crappie fish Okatibbee. We fished about 5 hours using minnows. Caught many but only 4 keepers (11", 12", 13", 13"). All the keepers were females with...

I took my son to West Point last Friday night. We had a great time. The temperature was perfect and the red moon coming up around 10:30 would have made a post card. We started fishing about 8:45PM...

Bill,
I live in Griffin. The other posts are correct about High Falls. If you've got a bigger boat, Jackson Lake is about 30 miles away. I took my two boys night fishing Friday a week ago and we...

Took my 10 yr old son and my 11 yr old nephew night fishing on West Point. We fished under the 219 bridge near the 219 Park Access. We took 10 crappie home and threw several dinks back. The...

Fischer,
When making condos with PVC pipe, I've started dipping the ends of the pipe into the concrete and rolling them around. Then I flip it over and stick the other end into the mix. The...

Took my 10 yr old son to Jackson today. Put in at Lloyd Shoals and fished in a cove across (east) and north. We caught 8 small crappie (kept 2), 1 3lb striper, and 1 11in. largemouth between 1...

I have some of the $30 folding seats from Wal-Mart in my jon boat and my lower back still gives me problems. I've found that putting one of those square throwable life preservers in the seat to sit...

I only used guides for inshore saltwater. Both times, the guides put us on fish, kept my son happy, and cleaned the fish. I tipped 10% in both cases.

Glad to have you aboard. I look forward to hearing from ya.

Any glasses that let you see below the surface use polarization filtering. The polarizing filter cuts the surface glare that "blinds" your eyes preventing you from looking further. The other factor...

We had one unopened jar of 2111. Threw it away.

I can't remember where I read it but there is a certain amount of error introduced into consumer GPS units by the system (military can be zeroed in closer than us). That why you can be sitting still...

Sorry to hear about the bad day. I have had a few. Sunday a week ago, I took the boys to Jackson lake. We got off later than I preferred and tried to talk them out of it because of the wind. Got...

Glad to see another new member. Look forward to hearing from you.

Great fish! Beats any bluegills that I've caught. I'll bet it was fun to catch on the fly rod too. Ounce for ounce, bluegills are one of the toughest fighting fishes I know of.

If there are no predators around, ducks can breed about like rabbits...we used to have them at our fish ponds in South Alabama. Not sure what type ducks they were but similar to the ones you show. ...

Great photos!!

I lost a company cell phone last year at West Point. Cost me $50 to replace. I've debated not carrying a phone at all but have thought better of it.

If anyone does get a phone wet, quickly...

My father has a fish farm up in Clarke County about 70 miles from Mobile. He's there most of the time. You can catch catfish, bass or crappie. I saw a picture of a 3lb 4oz crappie caught by a...

My dad built his first catfish pond when I was 5 years old so I reckon the first fish I caught was a catfish. I don't recall the actual first fish. I do know that at one time we were feeding 450lbs...

After breaking a couple of BnM trolling poles recently, I decided to try something different. I bought some 9 foot Shakespear Ugly Stick poles in their place. First, let me say that that they are...

Speaking of dust, I was making some condos the other day and managed to draw some of that dust into my mouth as it hung in the air. I don't advise anyone to try this at home. It took a professional...

Has anyone tried the Lindy Munchies Thumpin Grubs that glow in the dark? Do they work any better than standard baits when night fishing?

Welcome aboard! I look forward to hearing from you.
