Thread: Bobby Garland bait contest

Watts Bar today. Water temp was 72-75. Focused on deeper docks in the main channel. The 6 mph winds, predicted by the talking heads was at least 16. Didn't catch many, but the quality is sure there!

10/16/16 Tellico

we got on the water at 7:30 am. my friend and I managed to get 2 limits todays. we spider rigged in clear creek with minnows only. just like yesterday. the bad thing is that my buddy likes to eat crappie too and I had to give him his limit of fish.

For JohnnyT
Good day on Tellico

Today was a good day crappie fishing. this morning nobody was at the ramp except one other person. he is a member of crappie.com. I think his name or call was Pantastic. Nice to have met you. Well I spider rigged clear creek this morning and I had my limit by 11:15 this morning. i'm glad to. it started to get hot. I used minnows only and had the boat around 20-25 foot deep of water. fished in about 10-15

Sac-a-lait Saturday

I put in early on Tellico Lake this morning and you sure can tell a difference in the parking lot since deer season has opened. There was only one other guy putting in as I was. We got to talking crappie and discovered that not only do we fish one of the same fishing holes but we are both on crappie.com. Nice meeting you JohnnyT.
Water temp has dropped on down to 70 degrees. I caught 52 crappie today in the 10 to 15 feet depth range mostly on brush but also a few from docks. The fish were picky about the color today and seemed to prefer White/Chartreuse crappie magnet out of all the other colors I tried. Funny how its that way sometimes.




antastic

could I put another report?

Took my bestest with me to a community hole
We coulda stayed all day, but there were some folks not catching any fish so we gave them the spot and fished offshore
Tried the docks where guido here was too good on before
No luck
Again the screamer in baby shad beat the swimr, but the fast fall was the key

I could tell you more, but then i'd have to k..., you know

Made a trip to Normandy lake in search for a couple walleye I hadn't been on that lake in about 15 years .ended up being a ruff day wind got way way up .so we headed to try to dip some standing trees but that didn't work either .wind was up way too much couldn't stay on the trees did catch one spot off a point while pulling ARKIES .will be going back on a better pressure day.

Is there a Bobby Garland contest for us fisherman here in Georgia?

My friend Phillip and I went for a half day of Crappie fishing today. We fished from daybreak until just after lunch. The Crappie were scattered. Warm weather and overcast sky had the Crappie scattered and not relating to much of anything.
We managed to find 12 with 8 keepers. The best color today was Bobby Garland Mo Glo Ghastly Minnow on a 1/32 oz. jig. We caught most of the keepers early in the day.
Single pole fished. The water temperature was 71*-73*.
