I went to school today. 8/18/20
I took Cuonthelake fishing this morning and I got taken to school. I told you guys that she can out fish most of you but you probably don’t believe that she can. But she can. Lolol.
She caught the most crappie, two to one ratio, the only bass, and lost twice as many fish as I missed. She had the biggest crappie, right at 13” long. My biggest was only 12”. She hooked what she called a tank and there I was, standing at the ready with net in hand watching her rod bent over double and slowly gaining on the fish and it came within 10-15 feet of the boat and pulled off. I stopped my ears up because I didn’t want to hear what was coming next.
Most of this action occurred just at daylight and when it got bright outside, the fish shut up, so we quit fishing after two hours and put the boat on the trailer. It was a cool beautiful morning with wind coming from N to NE and the water temp surprised me at 82.5 degrees. Water flow at the beginning was around 12,000 cfs.
Candi had a Lights Out BG tied into a 3/32 oz jig and it was hot. If she had Litewire hooks instead of those old awful sickle hooks, she might not have lost any fish. When those Litewire hooks grab on, they hold on to the fish.
Curtis Hobbs, you get that eye healed up really fast. I’m running short of 3/32 oz jigs. Grin.

Most teachers take great delight in seeing their students succeed. It is obvious with this duo that egos are nonexistent. One thing I noticed about DK the first time I saw one of his posts was that he was generous with praise, knowledge and instruction. He's never silent about what worked and what didn't. He may not tell us where is condos are located, but then, we would not want him to do that, for our presence would probably overwhelm the resource and dry up the reports. Keep it up, we love it !

She don’t like them Curtis because she can’t get the fish unhooked when she gets it in the boat.Originally Posted by litewirehooker

DK, you might be a tad bit bias. Plus you forget, I do exactly like you taught me when it comes to those deep water crappies! Thanks again for the guided trip, you sure know how to put us on fish!
