Think I'll stay home today and eat beef steaks and eggs,snack on little debbie cakes,eat hotdogs drink choc milk a candy bar or two dream about crappie fishing.I sure hope I don't dream about the best times I've ever crappie fished.More I think about it the more I don't like what my mind is dreaming about.It see me setting out in the boat and catching one right after the other while watching the snow hit the water and turn into wittle soft snow nibs.
Turtlebait, One things for sure, If you were in the back seat of my boat we would have fun, I like getting a hard time from you just like I like giving you a hard time.:p I figured that we had a lot more in common when it comes to fishing than really appears.:) I would enjoy fishing from the back of your boat as well, but I figured it would be the other way around and you would throw me out.:p I can tell you know your stuff, and I can tell that because I know mine. Oh and about the duck weed, 1/8th ounce lead head, Them there Bowfin loves em some duckweed ponds But so does my favorite fish Largemouth Bass.:D Maybe when the conditions are right i'll give you a PM and you can come down to my favorite pond and And we will go and catch some of those king of the lake Largemouth bass. I have a comfortable back seat Or a butt seat. I think we would get along just fine. I promise I would throw back, unharmed your favorite sportfish(drum,bowfin and gar) if I caught any.:D:D You dont have to take it easy on me, that would take the fun out of it. I aint going to take it any easier on you.:DQuote:

If I want to keep a picture I've taken with the cell phone I'll send it to my email address to the computer.From there I can post them on the board,just make a new contract and put your e-mail address where the phone number goes.
Turtle on your list of fish to eat I can't believe that flathead didn't make it. Bass but no flathead? Gesh! I agree the marble eyes are good but ive only ate a few
I know I know I haven't ate any cats in a loooonngg time and the meat between its eyes is yummy.I catch several channels and blues while digging the crappie out of the mud and have never caught a flat while doing so.For some reason or another I do not keep cats anymore.Do people still bleed the cats and brush the the insides for better tasting meat?
My uncle has got me to just eating flathead walleye and crappie. I will eat bream if they are big enough but haven't caught any in a while. We caught a flathead that we guessed was 20-30 lbs last summer on a trotline we bled him didn't know if he would be good or not but he turned out just as good as any other flathead. My uncle likes to put a trotline out and run a few jugs so we catch some. Most of the blues and channels get given away. Never heard of brushing the insides I was taught to skin em but anymore we just fillet them
I always brushed the inside of the belly area,brush all the black lineing out of the belly,I was told that was here the mud flavor came from.When I first started bleeding the cats I was shocked at the amount of blood a fish had in them.I like limb lines for flats baited with big bream and just deep enough for the breams top fin to stick out of the water.A cat can locate a bream faster by the splashing on the surface.
