I need some help. On Monday I'm going to be at Texoma all day. I haven't been there in 5 years, and it may be another 5 before I make it down there again. Never tried for crappie. I'm taking my...

BigSky, Most of my crappie rods are spooled with PowerPro, but I haven't seen this "Depth Hunter" before. Thank you for the tip! I was thinking about marking my own line, but a pre-marked line would...

Now George, I know we like TALKING about crappie fishing all the time, but actually FISHING for them is a different story. ;)

Man, that's great to hear BigSky! I live about 4 miles from Draper, and work about 3 miles West of Hefner, yet don't buy a city lakes permit but about once every 3-4 years (when Cricket George wants...

I have long wondered what the city/state requires for tube fishing an OKC lake. Do you have to permit your tube like a boat? I'm guessing not at the state level, since they don't even tag...

Thanks again. Mine doesn't have a T-fitting, but putting one in shouldn't be too hard. That seems like to quickest way for me to help it do what it needs to do.

That makes sense. Thank you for the info and the links. So how does it drain; when it's time to empty the livewell can it drain through the aerator?

I just bought an '87 Lunker 14 that needs a full restore. I've had boats with working livewells, and boats without. But so far I've not had the pleasure of plumbing one. This one has a drain hole in...

I'm late on the sign-up...but won't be late for the party!

I can only attend Friday of this fine gathering. So far, it sounds like I need to bring Lawn Chairs and Soft Drinks. Anything else?

Most trips I bring 1 doz minnows -- just in case it's a minnow day. Most days I catch on both, and jigs out-catch minnows BIG TIME. About 2 outta 10 trips I'll catch 'em on jigs when they won't touch...

You actually took a break from making deposits long enough to make a withdrawal?!?

I'm kinda surprised we're not hearing about a Sandie run somewhere by now. I was at the Little River Saturday and didn't see a sign of one. Usually I'll have a few bite minnows/jigs while I'm crappie...

Tough decision when you have 8-10..............................THOUSAND to choose from!

Sure sounds thick for braid. 20# Power Pro is 4# diameter, but this stuff 12=6. Oh well, I'm a sucker for a bargain, so you know I ordered some!

These can be confusing days for sure. Our tendency is to think that fish are like us. So the Sun comes out and wind dies down, and we feel more comfortable. We want to go out and enjoy the Sun, so we...

I took an 11 yr old out and did some bank fishing last Sat. Caught a few dinks; had 3 that went maybe 9" I could have cleaned, but decided against it. I was using jigs, he was using minnows. He had...

The South wind just pushes you right up onto your trailer...now a West wind -- that'll get you cockeyed at Fisherman's Point. Seriously though, I use this ramp more than any other, and never have any...

Lemme guess, buyer-pickup only, right? No delivery!

Most of my life I've heard people say that it takes a long time for a new brush pile to acquire fish. I'd hear different reasoning...takes time for fish to find it, pile needs grow moss first, etc....

I'm with OkieDon, the old Wally Marshall rods (when he was with BPS) were good. Those are still sold at BPS, but now under the name "Crappie Maxx," (and are on sale this month for $35-40). They have...

Sometimes I wish people could hear what they sound...

This is me, reporting back for service project. I only hope it has to do with fishing. Even building PVC trees is better than the projects my wife's had me doing all week!

I've used the Pro Tec, and had success with it, but I can't speak for spike-it, as I've never tried it. I don't have a fluid bed, just did mine by hand warming the jighead with a lighter and dipping...

I'm betting that hanging lights off that dock would work mighty-fine. But it'll be less effective as the weather cools. Should have been doing that all Summer! They bite better at night when the...

Good to see Ranger at the lake this morning! Thanks for checking up on us. We fished mostly 2-8 feet deep around brush. Caught several bass using Garland baby shad, but didn't get a bite on minnows....

Thanks again Ranger. I hadn't heard of Blocker Bridge before. I know where Crowder is, and I know which direction is East, so I guess I could find it! Slip corks are kind of a hobby of mine, so that...

Thanks so much Ranger! That's very helpful information! I'm starting to rethink taking the boat though. Good old Gary England is telling me 15-30 MPH winds, and I don't think I should be out on a...

I'm going to be at a B&B this Friday down off hwy 9, a few miles north of Gains Creek boat ramp. I have never been to this part of the lake at all, and I've never had my boat on any part of Eufaula...

I'll take one if you still got one. Thinking George can pick it up for me...

Yeah, those blacks sure are pretty. Hence, they could not have come from Thunderbird! haha
