Yo-Yo's

Went yesterday and stuck out some bamboo poles around some big cypress trees and brush were there is nothing to tie yo-yos to. While I was doing this the crappie were flipping all over. So I tried trolling for a while, had some hard bites and could get the fish to where I could see them and they would come off. Only managed to boat 1 11 incher. They came off on minnows and jigs, and yes I checked and the hooks were sharp. Man, they were hitting hard, I just couldn't catch them. Maybe tomorrow or Friday after the rain I can do better. grizzly

Gooch, Conway, lets just say unmarked jugs wasn't the only violation they caught me at, live and learn.

I'll remember that lite stick idea. I've retired my jugs in favor of pool noodles cut into 1/3's, easier to handle and less racket in the boat, IMO.

Oh no I see you are a member of the Marche Mafia

Grizz, I grew up and Cabot and spent many an October day on Bayou Des Arc trolling that wide spot I saw you talking about somewhere, bout halfway between the highway and the river? Magical spot

Gooch, mess with our trotlines and we'll use ya for bait!

LazyJ, I'm on the bayou but about 10 miles upstream of the highway. But yes this is still a magical place too, where else could I make so many trips and not have seen another boat on the water. grizzly

Also wanted to say, welcome aboard LazyJ. Looking foreward to your input on the board. grizzly

Thrilled to have found this place Grizzly

More rulebook trivia, limit of 30 yoyo's / 20 jugs per person

I can quote regulations like a lawyer nowdays!

yo yo some usually in Jan Feb & March on lake Erling got my lesson concerning proper identification and not properly monitoring yo yo's to the tune of $200 last year will not make same mistake twice I only do it for the enjoyment and the $200 fine was not enjoyable.

I plan on bringin some of my "floatin yo-yos" with me to CC. BUT I think I have been very kuck from the sounds of things.

Gotta get my name on them!

Love to put my yo-yos out over brush piles that are in deep water with nothing to tie onto.

Hey Slip, I think it's getting to be about that time. :D We need to get out there and try 'em.
