lol. Thank guys for the encouragement. I think I'm done fishing for a while unless I find a stocked crappie pond or something. I sat out there from 12pm-8pm and not one single bite using live minnows and jigging with various jigs. People in boats were catching them though. I think I just need to find someone with a boat who can be friendly enough to let me tag along. I've offered to pay ... but I would like to talk on the phone before meeting. I'm not just going to meet up without chatting first. Well, have a great Sunday guys and thanks again.Quote:

I'm going to try to go after work this evening from 5pm-dark. If I don't catch anything then I think I'm going to try to just find a stocked pond somewhere. Getting tired of spending $20 and not catching anything from that Pier. The water according to the fishfinder is only 4-5 ft deep, so I'm hoping they'll move into shallows....:pray
Attachment 235913 I went from 5pm-7:30pm and this is what I got off minnows from the Pier. Man, this slab fought HARD! I thought it was a big BASS HAHA
I had to leave because the park closes at dark. But the bite was on jack!
That's enough for a mess if you save the backbones :highfive
Thank you, Sir! I filleted them and put them in a freezer bag with water and froze them. About two months ago I bagged 18 and stuck them in the freezer with water. I hope they're still good to eat. :donoQuote:

But I had fun! I saw those guys in a boat and said ya know, if I keep on nagging people at C.Com I might just get a ride one of these days HAHA
But thanks again. Have a great day! Fun times :fish
Having fun and being thankfull is what it's all about. Being able to go is the biggest blessing.Them fish are still good u got put up too. Heck, I bet if u offer to cook them up and give them away at that pier u will have guys not only let u in their boat, but they will let u drive that thing all around as long as they got that golden cornbread crusted fillet. Lol. Just my idea for u on a swap meet.
This day in time they'll think I poisoned 'em haha you know how people are now a days. I fried up 10 and brung them to work (I work with a few fisherman w/no boats ... go figure haha) and told them they were Crappie .... not one person took them. I was so let down. But yes, it was a true blessing to get to go. I get off work at 3pm, get home around 4:30pm (1.5 hour drive) then if I want to go and have some extra cash on me, I can be at that Pier by 5pm no problem. Maybe someday I can find someone that would maybe pick me up off that Pier and we can go night fishing .... I'd offer $50, but I have to have advance notice of the trip. I know it cost a lot to fill up the truck and boat. But I don't mind chipping in! As long as they can put me on some fish! haha
Have a good one
I have found that if I add a little salt to the water in a Ziploc and then push all the air out of the bag, the fillets will keep as long as they stay frozen. I found some in the bottom of the freezer that were three years old and they tasted great!
