    Finally thought I was gonna get to go and for the first time ever my TM batts were flatter than ......whatever. A couple of hours on charge gave me a grand total of 8 minutes trolling time. I did get one keeper and a short, both still swim, and had a good day regardless. Danny turned around in front of me but not knowing who I was, or maybe he did know, he spun and planed off to the horizon. Good to see you Dan, nice rig. Speckanator, Stu, Mike and Andy all had a howdy for the rookie. Good to see you all. And I got to give a special thanks to Andy for the best offer I have ever had on the water in my life. Knowing my batts were gone he offered to tow me around so that I could get a few fish. In doing that I'm sure his catch rate would have gone south. Many Thanks for the offer. I knew when I left the house that fish would just be a bonus, I had to clear the head more than anything. Once the wind picked up I was able to drift between .6 and 1.1 so it wasn't too bad considering. Looking into my gremlin and hope to see everyone next Saturday. MAN, these fish are dark!! Look like Tennessee fish with a tan.

    Some rod benders for sure today, (3) larger than 1lb 10oz, if the crappie Gods allow for good weather next weekend.......




    ... I will not be surprised to see a 9lb stringer of 5 fish come in to weigh, looks like we may have timed it just right for the SLABFEST


    All the biggin's released to be caught again.............Happy Halloween to all!

Was pulling boat out at 11 and low and behold her comes Speckanator round the bend, guess he got a yard pass afer all. Next weekend should be stellar if ma nature cooperates. I ended with 25 home and 19 throwed back. Had 3 between 13" & 14" rest were 11" - 13". Any way heres yer pics.

    skeetbum.....Danny turned around in front of me but not knowing who I was, or maybe he did know, he spun and planed off to the horizon. Good to see you Dan, nice rig.
    Hi Skeetbum, naw I didn't know anyone or where they were, I was looking but didn't know/recognize anyone I looked at.
    Didn't see HS or Speckanator out there, only at the dock ........
    I recall coming off plane and looking at a fellow in a BassTracker but didn't see anyone waving at me, so, headed on in, that was probably you = sorry, I shoulda come on up closer etc, etc ......
    I guess everyone went to the opposite end of the lake I went to cause I never seen anybody where I was etc ,.....
    But that's OK................................................ . now I got a bearing on my "new spot/spots" ......

    Was a nice morning for sure, and, my trolling motor did ok I guess, not used to going that fast but was acceptable and HS put his stamp of approval on 1.3mph -1.4mph, gonna have to get used to it .....
    See everybody next Sat , hopefully the weather will smile on us again.....
    (I will have a "guide" with me then) ....

    Nice fish Jeff, that's the kicker fish you're gona need next week.

    Skeet, you should have taken me up on the offer, I would have had fun watching you catch fish while I towed you around. I already had caught enough fish myself.

    Mike, I had a few with gar damage too. Caught one gar and grabbed his beak with pliers and broke off his beak. Then awhile later I swear I caught the same fish, think he was just trying to make me feel bad for brakeing off his beeky.

    I think I figured out some things = Sometimes my rod will bend down and I think I got one, only to pick it up and nothing's on it = I think those are gar messing with it etc etc, etc .......
