wow, that's all over the place. I'll be out there after 'em soon!

I like the 8' bass pro rod. It's about 50 bucks, but has good feel and I vertical jig with it and the 10 footer also. nice light rod with great sensitivity. when they get spooky I throw a slip...

Catfishing is the same as crappie fishing....understand the fish and you'll put 'em in the boat. They behave surprisingly similar in regards to how they relate to structure, bait etc. It's taken me...

I've caught several nice ones 12 to 14 inches while jigging up white perch for flathead bait in the last couple months. It's good to see some fatties back in there!!!

Haven't posted much since I haven't had a crappie rod in the water since about march, but still been fishing. The trophy blue fishing this summer was tough, but caught some good fish from late...

I've caught a few 12-14 inchers that were mixed in with white perch up there lately but they here and there. catch one for every 40 perch ya catch. I turned all them bigguns back in there.

I'd say around 20 lb. or so. I caught a 24 up there the other week while flathead fishing. There used to not be many blues in there but they sure are showing up good here lately! Congrats on that...

Look up the nckfa. Good people and they do it all when it comes to yaks.

Moat people move shallow too soon on badin. Stay deep til it gets in the high 50s. Bigguns live deep on badin for some reason and don't stay shallow long. Once the big fish go shallow they'll be...

Ran into this with running a 998 and a 597. I put a pc11 power cable on the 597 and an rf choke on power wire also. Pc11 has a choke built in but the other one helped more. I still fet a little...

Gladys was muddy earlier this week. bad muddy too. weird, but it is. Old whitney side is clearer than Gladys for some reason. machine branch is muddy, main lake to circle drive ain't too bad.

haha, I shoveled out the boat today and relined a few rods the past couple days. I even rode down to the boat ramp just to make sure the roads were clear enough if I decided to go tomorrow and even...

I am. I'm in the midlake rd area.

It's muddy all over right now. Indian Mound/cedar creek is the creek you're talking about. There are usually crappie in there, but it's muddy right now and full of bait. I catfished it last Sat....

I'm looking to build some bamboo piles and sink them in Badin and Tillery soon. Can't wait to see what fish gets on them. I'll sink most of them about 25 ft. deep and the piles will be about 7-8...

Gene, I'm the same way no matter if I'm fishing for crappie, catfish or whatever. If the bite is good, I will usually leave biting fish to se if I can replicate the pattern somewhere else. I'm not a...

River side is still muddy, east arm is clear above the islands. The mud was all the way down to Alcoa last time I wa there. I'm sure this snow melt isn't helping it retreat much either. Kitties...

nothing like a good 'ol milk sandwich!

Sprintfns, you make a good point that some big fish are shallow as early as feb. Shallow and deep are all a relative term also. If the creek channel in the creek is only 6 ft. deep, then 2-4 ft....

Could talk on this all day. They spawn by photoperiod ans water temp. I fish deep until April when the bigger fish move up. Smaller males move up first and bigger fish later when water gets around 60...

I like the idea of a how to show with how to find fish and what to do before wetting a hook. I'm sure lots of guys would love that. I try to help people with that part of fishing when I can.

Come to nc ans fish Badin. Hardly hear about this lake but it's loaded with slabs. Check my reports in the nc section. We got some big cats too if ya got to fill that need. I enjoy your show Scott....

Yes farmboy, the difference in colors means strength of the return. Crappie are a scaled fish that show a nice strong return, but in this case they were marked on the edge of the cone so they show...

The first pic that gene put up is what crappie look like on down image, like a bunch of dots versus clouds when it's bait. Sometimes an untrained eye can mistake crappie for bait and vice versa when...

If you see a bait ball and think it may be fish balled up tight switch to down image and if it's crappie it will look like a bunch of individual spots. If it's bait it will look cloudy. Crappie look....

Newly the graph was in max mode in the switchfire settings in that pic and sensitivity was about 13 I think. I normally leave it around 13 or 14 most of the time. It took me a while to figure out...

I will post more when I get back on the water.

That's a good mess there. Nothing wrong with that. That's more meat than a full limit at high rock most days. Glad I could help!
