Thread: Passin' thru Arkansas

Them kids will like to eat your catch. Let us know how you do. Jerry and his team have developed Greeson into a fine fishery. Even I can go on my own and catch fish.

rtark, I will be takin' I30 out of Little Rock then SR8 out of Arkadelphia over to the Greeson area. Don't think I'll be able to see your rig from there.

drpepper, I will report for sure. Might not be till I get back. Not sure about computer hook up at my daughter's house. Hopefully Jerry will have a picture of me holdin' up the stringer full-o-fish on his web site.

Grandbabies are just 1 and 2 years old so they probably won't care too much. But the grown ups will be into the fish fry for sure. With only a 20 crappie limit it's gonna be a small fry.

Thanks guys.

Weather forcast 12/07/10, Lake Greeson, 30 degree low, 50% chance for rain / snow tonight with possible accumalation of snow to 1" at higher elevations.

Hey Rob:

I enjoyed meeting you and yanking up a few fish together.

Here are the pictures from your trip:

I hope the fish fry went well and you found somebody to eat that striper! :o)

Nice catch guys. Looks like it turned out to be a nice day after all. Arms musta been tires, with just the two of you yanking them up.

That was the forcast, glad for you it did not mess up your trip. Good looking mess. Was that striper caught on one of the crappie poles?

Hey Jerry, what's that triple chin guy doin' with my fish?

Thanks again Jerry. I had a real blast. Worth every dime! Just talkin' about "fishology" was a big deal for me. And the catchin' was real fun also!! You gotta be damn proud of Owen, he is one heck of a deck hand.

The fry went very well. My oil got too hot and one or two batches got a little burnt. Everyone said is was fine but they were just being polite. I broke in my grandbabies on eatin' crappie. They ate a bunch! I left the stripper with my son in law, he's a pretty good cook and wants to try the "boil".

Fishbasket - Yes the weather was good. The rod tips were freezin' up when we first started in the mornin' but once the sun got up a little bit no probs. When Jerry hammered down that bad*** 200 horse, you had to make sure you were zipped up good! We were at one of Jerry's spots and all a once his crappie pole with a jig and 6lb line bent over and strarted singin', he turned around, handed the pole to me and said, "reel this stripper in"! It wasn't a big fighter just keep tryin' to go deep and get away, but we wore him out and got him in the net

Slab - Jerry set me up with 2 poles, he had 1 and Owen had 2 goin' most of the time.

Sorry for the delay in responding, had my hands full for the last 10 days.

Looks like ya'll had a great trip.
