But we're still making it out to chase some fish around.
Got a call from 870 mid afternoon yesterday inviting me to join he and a buddy for the afternoon/evening bite on the water he fished earlier this week. Since the customer that

This super early morning went out to search for crappie after the not so successful from past 2-3 weeks.
Not bad about 6-7 crappies, 4 bass biggest one about 3.5lbs and 2 palm size bluegill. Now I hope this is my new PB but too bad I’ll

Nobody really bothers to post any details nowadays, so i thought i would post how our trip to Russell went this past saturday. First, it was VERY crowded! I found out later that a long line tournament was being held that i wasnt aware of. We

And so were this fish on the northeast Bank of a small lake.....
It approached full on stupid for sure ..
Liked a tiny jig in black and chart about 3 foot under a float ...
Slowly dragging it and NO twitching allowed

It's been some kind of winter around these parts but we finally made it back out on to the hardwater for some perch and crappie. Well, we thought it was going to be hardwater but ol' Mother Nature had turned much of the pond into a huge slush

Mother Nature is a controlling force when it comes to when crappie migrate into prespawning areas on the lakes or rivers you fish. The length of day or you can say the amount of day light initiates the movement of crappie from its wintertime habitat towards shallower water. North Texas and Oklahoma crappie fishing guide Kayle Ward knows this time of year an angler has to be flexible and

From my old experience it is time to look for them crappies. I visited the spawn site lo and behold they are here not in great amount yet but seem like they are in small groups. Caught quite a lot of them in 10-12” and only a few slabs.

Made a quick trip today on Da Bayou near my home before the weather turns very cold this weekend. Caught several male Sacalait wearing their black tuxedo. The unusually warm weather so far this winter has pushed up the spawn a few weeks it

I had a good hunt the other day with a couple buddies, we managed to bag 7 squirrels. After a day on the ice with 6lb it was time for some comfort food! I already had the squirrels cleaned and in the fridge ready to go. I did some final trimming

Some years back I decided that a large slow sinking jig was needed in certain situations. Combining that with a desire to tie something different than the standard crappie jig I came up with these conglomerations.
Bit on the nipplie side of things yesterday. Had to give the hands a break every once in a while, glad I had a towel to dry hands after taking fish off. Sometimes I forget the towel. Only went for a short trip 1hr. 53 minutes Bill

Can crappie smell? The answer is yes. Crappie can smell, but does it make a difference in the number of crappie that are going to bite your lure?
Crappie can smell by passing water into the forward opening allowing it to flow past a crappie’s sensory cells than exits out through the back opening. These 4 nostrils are two nostrils in and two nostrils out. As the water passes through the nostril crappie sniff to investigate for possible mates,
