Did you have any current ? If TVA is not moving water the bite will be off. Were you fishing right behind a low pressure system ? The fish may be in the creek but they will be closer to river channel.

No, I didn't filet the crappie. I sure thought about it though. The gills were red. I was in the middle of cleaning a bunch of fish, so it was easy to pass on this one.

Finding minnows is the hard part in this heat. Any of the big, deep creeks will work for night fishing. Fish are often 8' - 12' deep in 20' -30' of water.

63348 The big fish is a 15lb Flathead. He had a nice crappie, but decided to try dessert on the old trotline. The crappie's gills were still red.
Went wednesday night and caught 15 crappie, most...

Check out the post on Covenant Cove piers. You are looking for Highway 69 bridge. Or the Warrenton Field Bridge same thing. They are slaying them right now, Most are 9.5"-11". Go early and take a...

I have an Aqua view, I always had a fear of losing it in a snag, but if you pay attention you can usually keep the camera out of trouble. It is cool to see some "structure" suddenly appear out of the...

What size clothing do you think he can use ? Where do you want us to send stuff to ?

I have one, but I quit using it after I got my SI unit. They can be very helpful if you make time to really work with them. It is fun to watch yourself catch a fish. It can also help you learn to use...

I start in the tail, then move to the barely hooking in the dorsal fin area. If that doesnt do it, I hook em right behind the head. Also if you are catchin' fish and get down to dead minnows, hookem...

That is a great find Skip ! May you enjoy the fruits of your research.

For Bankfishing, I suggest the Highway 69 bridge in Warrenton, across from the Boat Mart. There are a lot of bream spots along the rip rap. For crappie, fish the pumphouse side if possible. Throw...

Guntersville has a lot of weeds which filter the water, it is a fairly clear lake. So the patterns change day to day even hour to hour with the cloud cover etc. Boat houses, Creek channels and yes...

Could you be more specific Ship ? I know Gville pretty good but I do not recall that name. What creek is Covenant Cove on ?

Sounds like it might be a warm spot in January/ Febuary.

I have had one of the 4' for must be 9 years now. I crappie fish at night 90 %+ of the time. I paid more than $179 for mine back then. I would pay more more if I had to, to get a new one when this...

That is beautiful, thanks for sharing

Welcome from a Lund driver in North Alabama !

There are a number of fire ant baits on the market. Read the labels on them and look for how far from the known high water mark the bait can be used. If that info isnt on the label there may be some...

I guess I am to stupid to help. I Hit the submit form 3 x keeps coming up to fill in a field not on the form.
PS: do not send me any info on your stuff. I do not want E 15, I do not like E 10, and...

I made two different types. One is a C clamp welded on 4' rod. I drilled a hole in the other end of the rod and put a garage door spring on it and then a metal ring where I tie my line in, that takes...

At the back of the head there are 2 soft spots. 1/8th to 1/4 diam. When you find those on the fish you can stick a wire in one side and wiggle it. Kills em quick. Wire, ice pick, or small screwdriver...

I fish at night, and havent been much this year. It has been a month already since my last trip. I can usually catch 'em up into August. Weed lines next to deep water, and the creek and river channel...

There are plenty of bream in the lake, all of the creeks have good areas, use your map figure out which side of the lake you want to be on, and start fishing. Shore lines, weedlines, humps, even the...

The "Torquedo" in Cabela's and BP would be very nice, You are actually paying for "New" battery technology. This stuff is pricey but so is any new outboard motor. Let us know what you decide to do.

The Royal is a good looking boat, and the SeaArk has a 16' or 17' that is laid out really well, I think it is called the "Forecast"
