    Default Spanky


    I fished today under less than ideal conditions to say the least. Cold wind was so strong my usual tube baits had trouble getting down deep enough. I used a 1/8 oz Spanky that MEATGETTER sent me. I kept a limit of Crappie , a Bass , and a Channel Cat over 5 lbs. The water temp was 53 to 56 and fish were still deep. No photo this time. My arthritis is hurting all over from that cold wind. Taking some Aleve and calling it a day. Hope I can resist torchering my self on the water again tomorrow.

    Glad you were able to find something that worked. This is that weird time of year where it's hard to dress right. You can't bundle like you would in the winter or you're afraid of getting heat stroke but then if you dress too light then the wind will tear you in half even if it feels decent on the shore.

    Kilgore , if Deltic Timber keeps cutting that mountain will soon be bare. Ready for the bad cold later this week? The weatherman said the S word!

    You're right about those timber cuts. Almost makes the area unrecognizable.

    I don't think I'll be out in that cold. I might be trying to make as much headway through my "honey do" list so I can try to buy some extra time once the weather gets nice and stays nice. Call it fair weathered, but there's no heroes when it's cold.

    That's from an airplane. I have a little video too of crossing over the ridge that sits to the north-northeast of Nimrod and passing the lake but you can't post a video straight from my computer.
