One week at Crescent
We arrived at Crescent on 1/16 around lunch time. After we unpacked and settled in, we launched the boat and took off fishing. On Saturday, we participated in The Slabtogether and really enjoyed seeing everyone that was there and meeting Ron Presley and Billbob. Sunday thru Thursday the bite was a little slow but we caught some quality Crescent Lake fish. Our biggest was 2.71 lbs. Mostly, I fished with Talquin Maggie. I spent one morning with Anchor Man in the boat with me and he put me on 4 2+ lb fish that day. I fished a couple of days with my best friend of 34 years and he had a phenomenal week of catching some large crappie. Our accommodations were excellent and the weather was pretty good for the most part, but the wind seemed to find us about half of the time we were there. We enjoyed going to Corky Bells with Vic and Eileen Tuesday night for dinner. Because of the CrappieUSA tournament, I ran into many friends from GA and FL so it was enjoyable being out on the lake with people I knew to share stories and info with. Here are a few pics..............
Here is Buck with a 2 lb 13 oz slab that was released.
Billbob trying to autograph an coffee cup for Talquin Maggie.
Some beautiful sunrises.......
We had this Eagle that nested right next to where we stayed.
Uncle Si even stopped in for some slab catching......
Heading out to find them.
We found them. Here are a few over 2 lbs that were released.
And everywhere I went, this boat kept showing up!!!!
Looking forward to my next week long trip at Crescent!!!!!

The finest gift you can give to any fisherman is to put a good fish back, and who knows if the fish that you caught isn't someone else's gift to you?"

Hi Tim sounds like you're in good spirits I was quite aware of all that fun happening on the lake and what a week it was if it wasn't for the wind I might have had my best week but still looking forward to it they gonna have to put traffic signs out on the lake because me ,Vic and you seem to know how to show up at the same place. I get excited when I see Vic cause I know some slabs are bout to be caught. Seeing you guys out there and the drill instructor made my past week a great memory..keep safe my friend and get her back in the water soon
