Hit the lake in a new spot that I havent fished this year early Wednesday morning and fought the cold (mid 30's) idling out on the lake to where I wanted to begin at. I began longlining in water 25' deep pulling 8' deep. I only picked up a

Couple crazy weather days Thursday, think the mercury hit 86F & the wind put us on the hunt Friday....even soaked some minnows [emoji50]. Couple different lakes, creeks, & river. Jigged, trolled, & cork...no takers on the minnows,

Fished Norman again and had a great time with JetJockey. We went back to where I got them yesterday. Found some schools in the back of a creek and went further back and saw scattered fish that troller love to see. Scattered fish 6-10 feet.

My valentine and I found a nice mess yesterday. I caught several under docks but then when she joined me we found some large schools out from docks. Couldn’t guess how many throwbacks we had been it was a lot!
Did good fishing a few hours in the mornings the last three mornings. Capped it with 15 caught today. Yay. These were from a clear water area of the lake and the fish are gorgeous. All released so I can catch'em again.
I'm still doing what I usually do, longlining double rigs dipped in slabsauce fishing in about 5-7 ft of water trolling .9-1mph. Using Pico

Got out on Lake Griffin for a few hours Friday. Not much luck to start with but did manage to find a few. Switched up from Hoggie crankbaits to Hoggie hair jigs for a slower presentation...and low and behold they worked too, my first time using

I fished Indian Creek today, kept 18 and returned about a dozen larger fish. Shorts, gills and skipjack seemed to be everywhere. Fish were 5 to 6 feet deep and caught single pole on a Bobby Garland Tuxedo Black using a 1/16oz jig head. I could

Well have the B-n-L coming to town, so I'd thought I would scout some other waters. Thursday went to a old favorite Harney & for the 1st time in memory /no trolling poles, just 2 jigging. Caught 9 or so in 10 fow @ the 46 bridge, only 1

These warmer days have every angler thinking about fishing for spawning crappie. The longer, sunshine days have the female crappie in the initial stages of spawning, but the majority of crappie are still in deeper water. To catch these crappie anglers need to fish in the right areas and using a presentation that will put a lure in the strike zone.
Been having a blast on Harris. Even resorted to only keeping fish over 12" as freezer is getting packed. Those livewell shots are 3 different days in a week, 23, 18, 15. Even keeping Jake on point. Some days dipping pads or grass, some

Put in at SouthPoint Sunday and drove way down the lake checking brush piles as I went. Couldn’t find fish holding to structure. Ran into a guy (who I believe is on this forum) and gave me a heads up where there were some holding around Goat

I have been needing to take the Bristol steel telescopic rod out for a short fishing strip. It is a 9' steel rod with 3 guides, an aluminum reel seat and a short cork handle. I paired it with a Mitchell 308 reel with 4 pound Viscous Hivis

I moved from out of state to a house on Lake Wylie in 2002. I had been an avid night fisherman for years targeting trout and salmon in the Finger Lakes of Upstate New York. Searching the thing known as the internet it became apparent that

Had my first successful crappie trip since joining this site. Went out to Lake Tarpon on Friday, thanks to you all suggesting it as a good fishery. Still a greenhorn at crappie fishing, but I managed to find a few drifting my kayak in around
