I'm curious to hear how you did. I'm gonna guess you found a couple white bass at least.

I didnt see any but I saw some Gar so if the Gar got in I am sure the Asian Carp are in there too. I also saw lots of big fish on my graph and I have a feeling most of them were Carp.

I didn't go all the way to the other end of the lake. There is a spot about 2/3 of the way down from the boat launch where the lake gets narrow. It's right next to the camping area. The depth went...

Bingo.

I went there for a couple hours about 3 weeks ago to try out my new Terrova (Which I love!) I was mostly just playing with the motor but we slow trolled some grubs and cranks and I...

I have mine all set up now and it seems fine. I installed the Minn Kota 60 amp breaker near the battery just to be safe. I'll geta chance to finally try it out tomorrow and i'll report back if I...

Thanks for the Reply Bill. As far as I can tell the wire is in great condition but I will give it a closer look this evening to make sure.

This may be a dumb question but here goes :cool:

I bought a new Terrova 80lb 24v and am excited to install it this weekend. The TM I am replacing on my boat is an old 12/24 4 wire system that...

I've heard that Creve Coeur was dredged a few years back and they didnt replace all of the structure that was out there. This is second hand info and I have honestly never fished that lake in my...

True. I played around a little bit with the powerdrive and thought the foot control was terrible. The terrova was much better but also more then I wanted to spend at the moment.

This is something I have been fighting with lately as well. I love the idea of all the features of I-Pilot but I also bass fish a decent amount and it seems like having a hand control would be a...

Im not trying to make this any more of a Hitek love fest but I got to try mine for the first time today and they are fantastic. Super easy to adjust the rods where you want them and like several...

Thank you so much! This is what makes this board so great. You just saved me a frustrating day on the lake. I'll wait a couple weeks to head over there. Maybe a slightly longer drive to Rend is...

Anybody been out there lately? I have only ever fished the lake once but was thinking about trying it tomorrow. Any recommendations on a good area to target? It's just going to be nice to finally...

Oh I know I was just kidding around. I eat bass myself. Although, I would much prefer a 10-12 incher over a 3 lb for eating.

Ah the stuff people come up with. I call bull on this one but it's kinda funny. There's just no way he was planning to eat a 3 lb bass. :)

I am far from an expert on the subject but it seems like MTL would be a good place to start a Hybrid Stripper fishery. They could gobble up a few of those big shad!

Thanks CN. I sure hope this rain didn't make matters worse for me. The forecast for the next few days looks great so hopefully I can track a few fish down.

Anyone? Anyone? :D

Thomas Hill is not my first choice of lakes to hit this time of year but unfortunately it's my best option. I guess most of you are fishing down south right now which is...

Did anybody hit Thomas Hill this past week? I heard it was kind of muddy but have not seen it for myself. I am headed up there later this week and was just curious if anyone was catching anything.

Hi Yankee. I live in OFallon , MO and just fished Carlyle this past weekend for the first time for the same reason you did. Mark Twain is a big mud puddle.

I didnt have any luck but was not...

I'm from MO heading down to Weiss on Thursday night and am really worried about this cold front pushing through. I'm picturing Crappie lock jaw being in full effect on Friday and Saturday. I sure...

Im a little nervous. I am headed down there the weekend of February 21st from Missouri and have never fished the lake. It's a trip that I did not plan but am just kind of "along for the ride" It...

I mostly use 1/16 or 1/32 myself. I agree with slabman on the minnow shaped head. That's my personal choice too.

I've been watching this thread to see if anybody had any info. I fished it several years ago and caught a decent amount of crappie. If I remember correctly my trip was in September though. They are...

Im certain it would. Im headed there this weekend. I hope there are a few left for me. ;)

Good Luck. I fished Lake of Egypt in Southern Illinois this past weekend and the fishing was really tough. Did catch a couple nice 15+ inchers though. Im thinking about heading down your way to...

Very cool. I may have to get in on that. I just read that thread and everybody seems really friendly. Should be a good time.

Looks like im not the only O'Fallon resident on here. I cant believe I have never been on this site until today.

New to the site but not so new to Crappie fishing! I just stopped by Cabela's today for the first time and was pretty impressed with the selection but like has already been said the prices were not...
