    Default Cane Creek Whoppers


    Went to CC this past weekend for a few hours of afternoon fishing. I haven't ever had much luck with an afternoon bite out there, so I wasn't expecting much. The lake looked great, and the grass wasn't too bad. It was kinda patchy with a really defined grass line on the north side of the treeline. Couldn't find any keeper crappie, but I didn't really get to fish very hard, as I had the wife-to-be along for the ride. We found a few bream, a couple of small crappie, and a couple dozen LMB that must have hatched this spring. They were the smallest bass that I've ever seen...but they were extremely fiesty. The majority weren't even hooked...they were just holding onto the minnow for dear life. I guess they were hungry and didn't know any better...:D Anyways, it looks like it will still be a little while until the crappie action picks up some. I guess thats a good thing, since I won't be able to make any trips for awhile. Here's a few pics of our CC whoppers...

    And somehow, she caught the only 2 crappie of the day...both of which were about this size...

    I've been wondering about Cane Creek, haven't seen alot about it this spring. I wonder if it is going to heat up like it did last fall. I deer hunt a couple of miles from the lake and carry my boat down there during the season. There are some real nice black crappie in there.

    Sorry you had a slow fishing trip. But look at the bright side .You sure got a keeper from the pictures. It's great that your lady will fish with you. Mine goes along when the weather is perfect sometimes. :D
    Watch out posting pictures of your bare feet , people will think your from Arkansas. Seriously I did that last week. Sun burn'd my feet out in the boat while Crappie fishing.

    I am so proud of you. I thought the best you could do for a partner was Gooch. I would sit on the bucket all the time if my partner looked like that.
