Over the past couple of months we have ventured out and hit up some new to us crappie spots at Blue Mountain, Kerr Reservoir in Oklahoma and Lake Nimrod but have not fished much on Beaver.
In the afternoon I fished with Greg Robinson of Greg's Guide Service on Beaver Lake in Arkansas (479-601-1683 [email protected]). With Greg we did exactly the same thing, chasing fish with live scope while spider rigging. But with Greg I learned some additional

We haven’t been in a while. She’s now driving and doing very well in cheer competitions so it isn’t easy to get our schedules to connect. We got lucky today with everything except the starting temp of 51*. Now to some of you that isn’t that

For this fishing guide one technique has proven to be effective year after year. “This technique is what we call perch jerking. The rod goes down and you snatch it out of the holder then you get it in the boat quick,” said crappie fishing guide Tim Howell.
Howell noted that long poles utilizing the perch jerking technique was what he does 90 percent of the time with guide clients. “It’s a tried and true

Well I finally managed to get in some good size and #'s of crappie last Sunday. Can't say where out of respect for my buddy's fishing hole but man did I have a good time! We caught 48 that day! Brought dad with me Friday (with my buddy's

Hey! Minnows aren’t the dark side. They work, but don’t live long going into 45 degree water from the 70 of the tackle shop. I’m not a yak guy so my help is limited. I’d try below the Chick damn again as it’s good most of the year, well except

Even when considering the ongoing virus concerns, and perhaps in spite of those issues, this was the most awesome trip ever. It felt like the pandemic was over. Some had their shots, some had immunity from having caught it. Everything was seemingly getting back to normal again. Fishermen were gathering, eating together, telling stories. Although we did some social distancing when inside, outside, in the sunshine together, things

It’s been a long while since my Brother Jim and I have shared a boat. I took Friday and Monday off and he spent Thursday driving down from Atlanta to spend the days fishing with me. Got the Jon boat wired and ready for the trips just in time

I'm using to account for yesterday's visit to a lake I haven't fished for 8 years! I always enjoyed a decent level of success @Lake Woodruff gaining access from the Dexter/St. John's end of the lake. Yesterday, I chose to use the opposite

Well they say every dog has his day. Well yesterday was mine and GeneC's Old Dogs Day as we were able to win Bobcat's Crappie Trail tournament held yesterday on Buggs Island Lake/Kerr Reservoir. Our winning weight for 7 crappie was 15.37lbs,

Best day in a long long time. It’s been so long I almost forgot how to fish plus some other things. No, I did put the plug in. What I forgot was the life vest in the truck. I realized that about 15 minutes from the dock. We had to turn around
