Thread: Give it a week or two

Lake Monroe is showing signs of being a good year. The water's up and the temps are coming down. Today WT was 84/85 compared to last Saturday of 87/88. The bite is still slow but a few big fish are biting. The Saturday crew have been catching a few in the 13" range and today I landed a nice one just a smidgin under 14". Nice fat fish dark healthy fish. FCC...watch out for huntinslabs and crappieday next weekend...they've zeroed in on some hot spots and I don't think they'll have any trouble bringing 7 moby specs to the weigh-in.

My opinion for what it's worth I believe we'll start getting limits in Monroe the week of the 22nd! Until then......!

don't know why two pics showed up..........don't know whose prettier the fish or me!

Talquin Maggie says it is a sure sign that you are Double Trouble

Nice fish Mike but the cigar has to go. Looks like a good year for Monroe.

Took my wife and brown dog and headed out with Andy and Mike not far behind. Pleasant morning with overcast skies, tad more wind than I woulda liked. Checked around a few more areas and we managed 15 and kept 8. Brown dog was cocking his leg around 9:45 so we headed out.


Gotta go get me some of them life jackets for rods. Lost 1 today. Wife got a tad excited when I asked her to net a fish for me. See yall on the water

Aah them guys aint gotta worry about us. Sams been out there and I am sure Darryl will be out probably every day this week as well as plenty others.

They will be good tasting Mike. Boy they are dark in Florida, nice catch.

Looks good to me will be there in the am

sorry man, didn't have time last night. We got there just as they were openin the gate, headed out & found that there were floatin islands out in the the lake. They weren't as bad as the eel grass just below the surface so you can't really see until it's already tangled in your line. Tried to start where I wanted but the floaters were horrible so we moved to clearer more trollin friendly waters & found some fish. Caught 23 total & kept 9 for eatin, most were in the 12-13"range, forgot my scale so didn't weigh them. Will try to post pics tonight after work.

theres double trouble for sure!!
