    Default Cane Creek update


    I met Chris (CEB) today @ Cane Creek. Fishing was sort of slow, as an average. I caught 2 for the day, and Chris took a little time getting his limit. (I think he was being nice to me, because I went for a long time without a hit) Anyway, Cane Creek is a good looking lake for fall crappie. Chris was fishing with rosie reds, I was trying jigs spider rigged. I couldn't catch anything on my spider rigged jigs. Chris was kind enough to loan me some reds, and I caught one with it. I have a question for Jerry (LA stumpjumper). I was using high vis line today in the clear water. My only hits came on a roadrunner casted over the hydrilla w/ fluorocarbon line. CEB says you wore him out last week with that. Do you need to use low visibility line on Cane Creek, or was I not holding my mouth right with my other poles? I'm gonna try to go back down to CC sometime soon while it is cool. That wind blew us around a lot today, wore out the trolling motor. I have to brag for CEB also, he boated a 2 lb crappie. Had a great time, learned a lot from Chris, and hopefully it will pay off next fishing trip. Thanks Chris, & we'll see you guys on the water!:D

    Had a good time fishing with you on Friday. I know the lake will produce more the next trip. To sum it up, the wind was terrible friday and saturday. The bite was pretty good friday, then slacked off a lot on sat, then picked back up a little on sun.

    Jerry cooked us up a fantastic meal on Sat night. He cooked up some fresh crappie with pups, fries, and coleslaw. Topped off with cobbler. Good friends, good food, and the beautiful outdoors this time of year. Hope to do it again soon, although most of the crappie on the next trip will be catch-n-release, as the freezer is about to pop (so the significant other says).

    Jerry also mentioned to me the rental RV down at the campground. It's 65 buck/night with sat tv and room for 4 or 5 guys. We need to get a group of us down there soon.

    Total catch for the extended weekend.

    Chris,

    If we meet up next time, I'll take some of those paperlips off of your hands. I wasn't sure if you were stockpiling the freezer for the winter on friday, or I would have taken some home with me. I changed out the line for low vis green on my long poles & rigged them up for rosey reds for next time. I may get down there friday after thanksgiving. I loved Cane Creek. Hopefully I'll get down there & get a limit.

    Also, for Stumpjumper:

    In addition to the Hi-vis line question, Have you had any luck on nightstalking on Cane Creek?

    Randy I bet you could still get your hands on some of those crappie filets. CEB's significant other Eunice does not eat the tail portion of the filet as she is from the upper crust of society. Apparently in her homeland the tail portion of the fish is what her ancestors gave to the pesants thus she will not eat them.

    Peculiar woman but at least she lets CEB go fishing.

    Randy...There's a bag waiting for you in the freezer whenever you are ready for it.

    Grubby...Your welcome anytime. We will just tell Darryl that you are coming to see him.

    TJ...Cane Creek is just outside of Star City. I should be down there for the weekend after Thanksgiving, just to visit the in-laws. I'm afraid that everyone will have deer on the brain after Thanksgiving. I must also park cars for the game. Should be very profitable.:D

    Jerry will be down there for the week. Wish that I could have traded places with him. He said that he will post another report mid-week.
