Thread: Slow & Windy

Hey Slabbandit, I'd say that it looks like y'all had a pretty good day. The wind can make it tough. But, the wind is gonna be tough for awhile now, at least until you actually need a breeze in July. Oh well, the fishing may have been tough today, but just know that better days are ahead...

Slabbandit I wound up with 5 nice fish and a few dinks. The biggest was 1 lb and 11 oz. The 5 was total of 7 lbs. They are getting ready to stage if the weather will warm up a little more.:D

Hey Nimrod, I think that once the surface temp stays over 60 degrees we should have females staging on most of the brushpiles and should be able to catch some males shallow moving in and out from the bank.
About a couple more weeks probably.

Here is a picture they took at the store. I've got to get some lessons on the digital camera so I can post more. Josh and our 5 biggest . I got to get that boy more interested or he will be a green carp fisherman.:D If they ain't jumping in the boat he has trouble focus'n on Crappie.:rolleyes:

Nice fish fellas...sounds like its just a matter of days and you'll keep Josh real interested.
Thanks for the tip on the bighead jigs bandit i got my order yesterday and i'm chompin at the bit to try em...they look awesome.

I almost have that problem with the wife, she gets bored with the slow bite and either takes a nap or keeps griping til i caint take it anymore and have to leave.

Congrats on the few that yall did catch, some nice looking slabs.

Nimrod I have found that when my wife gets sick of my going crappie fishing, that its time to fry some up and renew her intrest. Hit that boy with a 10 peice fish dinner and a crappie jig and tell him to go get more and he will be plenty interested.

Are you kidding Gooch . He complains we eat too much fish.:rolleyes: I kept 13 desent fish today. I had 1 lb 11 oz and a pair of 1 lb 8 oz with several 1 lb+ Crappie. I caught and released a bunch of hand sized fish. They were 3' to 9' of water. All on Pink/White Umbrella Tubes on 1/8 oz leadhead. Slabbandit will post a picture later. Saw him as I was leaving , I drive right past his home.:D
