Thread: Obsession

I've also just gotten the crappie bug in the last few years and my dad has caught it as well at the age of 73. He's been doing nothing but crappie fishing lately...
They are just to pretty not to catch this time of year in particular, when the water is clear and they have their courting gear on.

Born and raised around fishing Sac a lait but didn't really start liking to fish until a few years ago. I was forced to go fishing. Now I have to force myself not to go Fishing. Started really fishing hard last spring I fished more times last year then I ever did. I to just bought me a boat about 2 months ago. Ive fished 5 different lakes already. I hit larto last month, I knew I was to early for spawn but I justed wanted to be on the lake. I'm Dying to go agian can't go this weekend because it's the wifes B-day. But I have the 11th and 12th booked. Good Luck Guys!!!

Bought a boat, rods, holders, put an RV at larto cabins for the year, spending every weekend I can in pursuit of the white perch. You may miss me April 17, as my wonderful wife pointed out, it was time to give her a weekend in NOLA. Small price to pay, I'll be back on the 24th trying to lower the water level at Larto by filling my cooler.

Hey OL,

I understand were your coming from.

What I don't understand is why not take your wife to NO and then go fishin and pic her up when she's ready? Or when she's macs out your visa card.

Been bitten for sure

You can walk away from WP fishing for years and once you pick it back up you realize it still has you hooked.

Man, you guys got it bad. I know the symptoms well and I can clearly see that you got it BAD. I kno cause I got it too.

Oldyankee, if you haven't been, it's an experience. The WWII museum is excellent, the Audubon Aquarium is cool, as well as the Audubon Insectarium. I always get my fix at the Hard Rock Café there. If you're driving from Lafayette, you'll pass by Cabela's in Gonzales. Didi's son has a café near the French Market in the quarter. Just thought I'd let you know in case you haven't been. By the way - how did the camper problems work out? Just thought I'd ask.
