Lake Maumelle

Gooch,

Came up with a Johnson Colt (2.2hp) outboard. Thinkin bout using it to do some long line trolling or trolling. Think it will run slow enough??? Did some bow fishing there along time ago. Could see catfish all over the place.

Hey Gooch
Do you think they would let us split that $150?? Is that for each brush pile, or just for when you get caught?

Hey DP,

I'm in too, maybe they can split it amongst the many. You know how dangerous it would be if one of those sailboats cruising in a 20mph wind hit one of the brush piles set up in one of the coves?:confused:

In fact the last 2 or 3 trips out there our boat landed at least 1 at or over 5 pounds.

I've always heard it was full of Catfish. Did'nt know about the Saugeyes in there. I was told by AGFC biologist they were not suppose to stock any where connected to the Arkansas River for contaiminating gene pool of Sauger.:confused:
If I fished there much ,I have some cover in the lake. Maybe even make night runs to sink them if I had to.;)
I knew some old guys who slipped trotlines in years ago and caught lots of big Cats. Even heard of the Bass fishermen catching some real big ones. People used to catch Crappie in the lake and can't see why you still could'nt with the right cover in place.:D

Wasn't it you that was complaining about the beavers causing brush to fall into the lake last year?;)
