Nice. What hook size?

Wind spinners, chimes, and motion detector strobe lights right on the fence line. Just to get their attention. Maybe a couple well placed mirrors too!

Nothing better than having a dance partner that is pretty to look at and is light on her feet, eh?

SeaArk makes nice boats, and have for years. Glad to have my old one.

Wind was terrible and we had Armstrong power
Couldn't stay on crappie cover.

Those look like carnival treats, elephant ears! Nice.

I do pay attention bro, that's why there is a fair amount of pink in there also, to protect me from copyright infringement:biggrin:Rofl

Yep, good pics and outcomes. I'm about 1 day from my first boat trial myself.

Nice pics and write-up skeet! What is the pink line and what reel are you using? Great set-up.

That body shape tells ya it was a battle! So cool!

Just remember, super glue will keep the front of your plastic tight to your jig head, but the back part still gets nipped and shredded.I would only do the minimum to hold the plastic on.

My wife reminded me a big part of my success was that I was wearing my crappie.com hat!

Gift packages and the friendly exchange of ideas makes crappie.com a place like no other! Congratulations!

Jim, I tipped with Slabanator Scented Slab Sticks, Crappie Nibbles, waxworms, and red worms. I change colors and the tip material often. Had to today, lost 5 jigs on break offs and structure. This...

Biggest was 9.5" L 4.5" top to bottom.

Caught 25 on 5 different hand ties. Largest were 9". My buddy caught 16. No evidence of spawning here.

Great guess Jim! I talked to a fella that used to live on the lake and he said "someone" may have put some in there:biggrin

Hand tie tipped with white crappie nibble. We have fished this lake for years and never caught or seen a smallmouth before this nice one.

They came in to my brother's calling but didn't gobble. Just looking. Had plenty of time for the shot. The .410 impressed my bro with how effective it is. Fun hunt to share with many stories. Now we...

My brother called my bird in. As good as any caller I have heard, and runs a diaphragm call backwards!

His twin and he came in. Only the 3rd and 4th bird I've seen this season. My season would've ended tomorrow .

22 yards, #9 tungsten shot, .410-9" beard.

Great pics of great jigs. Go get em!

Yep his tips on UV resin helped me build some killer bluegill jigs. He was always busy.

Agree many hens may be sitting, but not all day long. Heard one gobbler this morning. Responded to calls but never waivered from his line of travel. 30 mile drive thru prime turkey territory and no...

A friend has invited me to hunt his farm where he typically sees 40-50 birds. We saw 8 birds today, half were toms. I'm hunting there tomorrow, those numbers are still better than I've been seeing.

Thanks, guys, just speculating. This would be ultra early for all the hens to be nesting. Even then, I would still be seeing toms somewhere. Really a different situation than normal.
