Thanks for the info... I'll pass it on. No one has mentioned Bistineau or Wallace as their favorites. I understand Wallace has Hydrilla problems. Is Bistineau a good lake for crappie or bass? I see...

My son is playing for the Shreveport Sports this season and would like some fishing info on the area. I believe his first home game is tonight. His name is Austin and should be playing right field. I...

Now thats funny.... I don't care who you are!

Mine is home made. It's a golf club handle attached to a small rectangular shaped trout landing net. I used epoxy to permanently afix the club handle inside the net handle. It's the perfect size for...

The re-newal notices do get annoying but I just toss them in the trash. What I can't figure is when I hear someone from Texas, Tennesee or the Carolinas making reference to the new issue that just...

Darryl... I noticed that the crappie cakes recipe on your site calls for "raw" chopped crappie and it says to cook for 2-3 minutes per side. Most recipes I've seen call for flaked filets which means...

I cut mine into 1" chunks, wrap in bacon and thread them onto skewers with red bell peppers and onion. I marinate then use an orange ginger glaze. Makes for some very tasty k-bobs.

CR,

It's next Saturday the 22nd. I'd like to see a list of who's fishin it.

A couple weeks ago I asked a local bait shop for some rosey reds and he said they were out of season and couldn't get them right now. Are you guys finding them this time of year?

Does the salt water kill lots of fish?

Looks like Emeril likes that recipe too... but his is the chicken version with some cashews thrown in.

I have Dish Network but the OLN CH 151 has very little crappie related shows. I've never seen Midwest Crappie on it.

Is there any news as to when they will be "on the air" again? As it stands The Sportsman Channel is just a figment of imagination as far as on-line viewing is concerned. Am I missing something?

Arca,

Be sure to take a look at the Eagles. Same product as Lowrance with a few less bells and whistles for about a hundred bucks difference resectively.

I just today recieved my Eagle FishStrike 1000. It's a beauty and will replace a Garmin 240 on the console. I got it mostly hooked up but I need some silicone to seal some screws and tie some wires...

The water in the bag method works okay but any professional chef will tell you that ANY meat should not be frozen in water. It sucks the flavor out of the meat. That's why the water is fishy when...

It's been a loooong time since the Sportman's Channel has been on the air. I just visited Russ Bailey's web site (Midwest Craooie) and it states that Midwest Crappie will be back in October 2005 on...

My wifes 4-Runner pulls my 18' Astroglass w/150 Merc just fine. My GMC Sierra with a V8 does better but the 4-Runner pulls it ok when needed. I don't think the highlander has near the suspension the...

Ok I'll bite. What's the JB weld trick?

Crushed potato chips(any flavor) work well. I like bbq and intend to try salt & vinegar some time. I've heard of people using cheetos but have not tried them.

Big Zig... thanks for the tips!

I have a couple of questions about your tips.

"if you are getting powder paint clogging the eyelet, you are using too much powder and/or too much heat."

How...

Is there a limit on how many poles are allowed in Oklahoma for trolling?

I read a post in the archives where Moose stated that the wire guard on the Oldham's jig works better than his homemde w/40lb mono. He noted that he missed less fish with the Oldham's. That being the...

Moose... how do you make them weedless?

Jumping Cholla Jigs,

So you just toss a handful of jigs in an electric skillet and warm them to 350*?

At what temp does lead begin to melt?

I just found the stumpjumper. It's made by Bass Pro Shops and appears to be the pony head jig which is a larger striper bait but does resemble a roadrunner.

If I'm not mistaken the stumpjumper looks like a cricket stretched out length wise and does not include a spinner.... or maybe that's a puddlejumper.

Wondering if the spinner caused any problems?

Yes they use the same transducers. Take a peek at their web site... www.eaglegps.com
