LB

Turkey are mighty scarce , but looks like Crappie fishing might be good this time, if the creek don't rise.

Nimrod, can you not crappie fish while running your nets? Is it illegal? Not interested in running nets, just trying to learn

LAW SAYS : No sport fishing in same waters as fishing with commercial tackle.

We cannot sport fish in the same waters while using commercial tackle. That is the way Arkansas law reads.:(

Kepping our mind occupied with the socialistic health plans so they can slip crap like this past us.
I guess I am going to be an outlaw. I will start carrying my guns in the boat. They have been left loaded at home because that is where I thought the DooDoo would start.

Nice!!!

The river was running between 60,000-100,000 all winter, so this was a below average winter for me. I did catch a few big ole razorback buffalo on my lines actually. 4 or 5 of 'em were close to 40lbs. Probably a couple dozen ops, but nothing over 15lbs. Enough to pay for license and gas and a cold beer or 2 here too.

Broke my motor about 2 weeks ago and getting it back today or tomorrow. I got guys ringing my phone off the hook needing fish. It's gonna be a good spring I believe.

We caught lots of Buffalo, just none much over 20 lbs. What kinda tackle you fish? What river you fishing? All I use are gill nets and pefer 4'' sq so little stuff and Crappie don't get hung in it too much. May put out some hoop nets this spring in Petit Jean River.
Lots of folks hate commercial fishing, but here the Buffalo and Carp would take over the lake, not to mention those Crappie eating Ops.:D
