Thread: Any Russell Reports?

I hope you have a good catch. I have not fished Russell since Nov.. It's about time to try the fish there.

Pintail's the only one I heard that was gonna give it a try lately and hasnt reported anything. Dunno.:o

you mean there's crappie in Russell. I know its full of spotted bass but crappie's in Russell.Hands ClappingHands ClappingHands ClappingHands ClappingRoflRofl

It should be on I don't know if I'd wait on a report, before going cause I've learnd over the years no reports usually means folks are catching and not talking.Thumbs UpThumbs Up

So true!!!!

I know there are crappie in the lake. I was fishing with Carl one night and catching fish and him and the other person that was with us wasn't. Carl told me if I pulled another fish into the boat before they caught a fish that I was going for a swim .. I beleived him and fished the rest of the night without hooks!!!Thumbs Up:D:D

I just got back from fishing Russell on Sat up Rocky River at 81 bridge, water was perfect stain and temp was 53 to 54, didnt catch 1 crappie. we long lined for about 1 & 1/2 hours and kids got ready to go home. i did catch 2 nice largemouths on jig on some bolw downs. We fished CH on friday and caught some nice fish. Our total was 47 on Friday. I know Russell will be good real soon, I'm just learning the trolling meathod, i have always fished with casting jigs or minners. Good luck!!
