Water is the most dense at 39.2 degrees. Thus, when the water temp reaches 39.2 degrees, the water below it rises to the surface, bringing all the mud and debris with it.

I brought up "Brushpile Fishing" but could not find that particular show.

Lake Shelbyville is about 365 miles north of Corinth, Mississippi - depending on which route you take.

BobB - I don't think flogging them in public would do any good. Years ago in London they would hang pick pockets in public and they always drew a large crowd. As a result pick pockets would work...

Where is the weigh in site for the crappie usa tournament?

Mean Green 2 - I heard those big flatheads can turn a man every which way but loose. Now I see what they mean - that must include upside down and sideways also. Great looking fish. I never got the...

The bait shop at Wolf Creek is called Leprechaun Landing and the telephone number is 217-459-2240. Give them a call, but I am sure they sell fishing licenses.

XXLFISH - Hey Jerry, it could be. I saw some guy in McDonalds in Sullivan with a peg leg and a patch over one eye. I also thought he was dressed kind of weird.

There are numerous lakes and rivers in Illinois that have no size or creel limits on crappie. How can they impose a possession limit for your freezer? I have yet to meet a CPO that can come to a...

XXLFISH has been known to take off and leave his marker buoy over the brush pile he had been fishing - right Jerry!

Crappie wizard - We passed you towing the boat as we were headed up to the RR bridge. It was a slow day for us as we had four overs and five unders plus threw back two small bass. We also caught...

Hey barrelslime - there are only a few places I know of where you can stick the thermometer in February and get a reading of 98.6 degrees and I don't think it is in any lake I know of.

If the drop is March 8th, they must be planning on using ATV's instead of boats to get the trees to the drop sites.

Pat - I thought I read on here earlier that someone had been down to the Collinisville show and had reports from the state on our three big reservoirs. If I remember correctly, they said the...

I second the advice about going out with someone. I broke through the ice on New Years Day where a spring was running under the ice. Thanks God it was fifty years ago when I was in my late...

I heard they are closing Bo Woods this afternoon or evening. That info came from a very reliable source.

Is the fish cleaning station at Bo Woods still open as of 11-2-13?

You might consider launching at the Coal Shaft area. Parking lot is right near the water and you would have a sandy beach to run your boat upon. No launching fees either! Road to launching is on...

crappie&shrooms - Like Birdman stated - the ville is not known for big bluegill. There are a lot of gills that hang around the docks at all three marinas. While Fox Harbor and Findlay will let you...

clfarms1 - You need to invite Zettler to go out with you on a fishing trip. Most of the stories he writes about his experiences on Lake Shelbyville can top that one by a long shot. lol

I haven't been there in over a week, but it wasn't open at that time. I assume you are talking about the one at 9th street and not the one below the dam.

Wilbwe - The Citgo station in Sullivan sells it.

CITGO

"So the question is, was I out of line with the officer, and should have minded my own business." Gonepostal - That depends - did she thank you for your concern or write you a ticket when she...

NEBRASKA - Dang Tyler your reputation for finding fish is spreading far and wide. Great job!!!!!!

L for crappieken - Looking forward to meeting you at camp!

Come on Jerry, don't be so modest. I would give odds your batting average is at least .800 and you get more home runs than you do strikeouts. I would bet you and Delmar would finish in the top five...

Ditto to what burgersb just wrote - There will be 2 adults

Tyler - Was the pic of you holding the two 16+ inch fish taken in your motel room? Just wondered if you cleaned the crappie in the bathroom sink? Been there-done that. Never returned to that...

Lots of luck with Walmart. The last two trips I made to Walmart in Mattoon there was no salesperson working in the fishing department. As I walked toward the exit some old gentleman sitting on a...

Back in the late 70's there were a lot of 12 to 14 inch fish being taken in Lake Charleston. The word got out and I spoke with a Charleston police officer who told me there were cars from the...
