Yeah, I may regret it later. But the way I see it is God created these waters for us all to enjoy, no sense in claiming it for myself. Yesterday, I pulled into the small cove that I fished Friday and there was three boats in there. You shoulda seen the dirty looks I got. I just went and found another spot. I understand some guys are just looking for a hotspot because they may not know what to look for yet. I dont mind helping them with that, I rarely fish the same waters anyway. BUT, dont expect me to give away ALL my honey holes!! Oh, and say hey next time you see me!!

Awesome catch!

Show a brother some respect when he shows you the exact spot!! You are motivating me to hit some of my old river haunts, going broke driving to Dardanelle. Very Nice!!!!

I thought you lived near Conway?

Good job. My opinion is that most of the people won't put the time or the effort in to learn how to fish like you have and even if they go to the same location you went earlier they might get lucky and catch a bunch but most likely not because something will have changed and they don't know how to fish the change. I myself am trying to learn about crappie behavior so I can be able to catch them in most conditions. Of course many on this board have forgetten more than I will ever know.

Catfish were thick in that spot too. We put out a couple hundred yards of nets out there Friday evening and pulled them Saturday morning. Had several nice crappie too. Takes a big crappie to gill itself in a 3 1/2 inch.
