Do he was busted lol. I think he was really trying to be sly about it!! That was a toad of a fish he caught about 23lbs on that jigger pole.

All i can say there was something with a lure hanging out the back.

Hey guys I'm sorry I didn't stop to chat very long I was just trying to get on the fish because the bite wasn't very good. We did manage 28 nice fish. Nice to see you guy out on the water hope to see you all again soon.

Glad I saw you guys. The reason you didn't find that honey hole was because there was none to be found. Friday was the worst day for crappie I have ever had on Dardanelle, and I have fished it since it was backed up in about 1964. But the previous 3 days were as good as it gets for catching all slabs. I think the high high pressure along with the shad die off and the previous 3 days of gorging all contributed to the pathetic day we had friday. Of course you have to also consider that thousands upon thousands of crappie have been taken out of those narrows since October. I heard that shoal bay was the same way Friday. I will be in hot pursuit again Monday.

Ray is true sportsman , does'nt trawl. He is a jig fisherman.

Hey JW your a troller so I guess your not a true sportsman, that's what Nimrod said. So you might as well just get you a big old bucket of minners and at least catch some fish when you come up to Dardanelle. Boys the fish are on a minnow bite it shouldn't be that hard to figure out. If your going to waste to time and gas just stop and get a few minnows to. But if you don't want to don't, me and the other minnow fisherman will gladly catch the fish you could of caught if you would of been fishing with minnows.

Conway truth be know goose was supposed to bring minners but decided not to fish with us. Trust me I am not against using them when needed lol. Just haven't needed em in a long time.

Guys...Minnows shine in the winter...weather its on the back of a jig...minnow on a naked hook... or a tandem minnow rig...like I mostly been using to catch fish deep recently. So if folks are putting out good information to help you out... why would you not take advantage of that information and use it to your advantage instead of making sarcastic remarks of the way a fellow catches his fish. I think it's about time to lay the Troller verses Single Pole to rest and the minnow verses jigs debate to rest and all come together as friends of the site and let each other know we are all "True Sportsman" no matter how we post, or what method we used to legally catch our fish. I for one am just getting tired of seeing a dead horse beat to death.
