    Default Simple but deadly


    Finally got a chance to do a little dawn, dusk and night fishing to try out Bob #1's Reel-lite. My pastor and a few friends went out and the scenery was breathtaking. At dusk I caught several trash fish so I had to show you those. We did better at night. The reel-lites brought the minnows in and our minnows and the fake "Simple" hook worked just fine. I used indestructible mylar I found at a yard sale and some flashabou. Tied it on some hooks and let it reflect in the light. When we ran out of minnows I tipped it with some wax worms.

    I'd call that a good day
    GO BIG ORANGE !

    I meant to behave, but there were just way too many other options available at the time.

    Nice fish Ship! I haven't been out night fishing in a long time - but I do enjoy it! No water skiers or jet skiers around and it is so peaceful. I use one of those 3-foot greenlights - and they really draw in the fish.

    fantastic ship. I really enjoyed the pictures I especially liked the looks of your Lake it looks very fishy you do catch some nice big crappie. We have noticed one thing about them compared to ours yours seems to have more spots on them would there be a such thing up two different species of black crappie . We have noticed many of the fish from eastern part of the state in Midwest's are a little bit different. Looking so we were just curious if any of you guys have noticed this throughout the US and is this done because of water traditions. I wouldn't think that the spawning would make a difference spotting. The only difference would be make the fish darker but I would say that the crappie that you are catching ship are very beautiful . I will have to post some pictures to show you what I mean.

    Caught about 15 of them trash fish. Threw them back. I love crappie, 'Gills and perch only. Once in a while a walleye or white bass may find itself heading to Lake Crisco but those times are few.
