Nimrod, I don't know. I have not fished Piney in over 30 years. I went back today to TRY and find a new place to fish. Had some good help from a buddy here, told me where to go, and I did. There are boats all over the place there, doing what I call "strolling".......just easing along fishing real deep. If I could catch 'em like that, I guess I'd enjoy it, even though that's not my cup of tea. But it was dingy, looked to me like. I did try bank fishing on cover, and never got a bite there. That's how I like to fish, but of course, I know you have to adapt.

After tomorrow, if my secret spot peters out, I'm back to going to Nimrod and sitting in the truck watching the water go down enough to launch my boat. It seems to be the only place I can catch any fish....and even there, I don't tear 'em up all the time.

Maybe I ought to take up shuffleboard.
