Lol! Nah, you're still The Pro. I just get lucky every now and then!

Wow what a catch!!

Just a quick question here from a new guy about the lake and depth. I'm also new to crappie fishing as well. I just looked up Lake Conway and the average depth is 8' with some areas up to 18'. Is a fish finder still a good tool for use in these shallow depth's? I'd like to take the wife fishing at Lake Conway and It seems like a pretty good sized lake. Where would a good place to launch the boat and get right to fishing? I hate to ask questions like that but sure helps to have a starting point at a new lake. We would be driving from Batesville to get there.

I also just finished building a Jon boat so ready to get after it.

Thanks,

Lee

i would suggest staying closer to home rather than coming to conway and getting skunked, the lake is not easy this time of year and for a new guy whos never fished it ,id give lake Charles a try, you should be able to catch fish there , save the trip to conway for the fall/ winter or spring, much better fishing and easier to find, jmo!!!!
