We put in at Lake Ferguson and motored across the river to get to Paradise. There is a 4 mph current in the canal comming out of Paradise and it is falling really fast. David and I fished till 12:30....Caught 7 slab Crappie, 2 nice Catfish, 2 drum, 2 striped bass, and one 10 lb Buffalo (had two more but they got off). The buffalo will be the prize for today (David said before we left that he just wanted to catch a good buffalo to eat). We usually hang at least a couple of buffalo when we fish Paradise. The smallest Crappie caught was probably close to a pound and a half.....batteries down in my digital scale but they were all really really nice ones. David thinks one will go close to three lbs but prob not....and I know he won't when we get thru cleaning him!!! Oh yea, the gar are still there! Also.....the turkeys were really gobbling over on the Island 82 side this morning early and were very entertaining for an hour or so. Didn't know they did that this time of year. We didn't hammer the Crappie too bad but had a great time anyway. We were the only boat trolling and there were 3-4 others along the edges but I think they were bass fishing.
