It looks like my wife and I will be retireing and moving to the Lanier area. I fish almost every weekend now and from reading about your lakes I can not wait. In Virginia our best lake is Kerr lake with some great crappie slabs. I do respond on the Va site now and the crappie fishing is really starting to pick up. Hope to meet you guys in about a year and a half from now. Fishing new bodies of water has always been fun. Tight lines JIM.B
