I have been following the board for a while. I recently retired and just bought a boat. It is a 17 ft. deep V with a 90 Johnson. I have been doing a lot of trout fishing at Hardy, and caught some good ones this spring, but want to get into crappie, panfish, and bass. I live close enough to Horseshoe Big Lake, and Malard for day trips and hope to fish them this fall. I would also like to try Greers Ferry and Wappapello. I would like to hook up with someone local to fish with, so if you live in the area, please get in touch.
