    Hey 3Girls, you must be fishing Midway? They do have some hog headed crappie there. I fish it regularly.

Just so much going on with the kids, its hard to get away for more than a few hours most of the time. But I'm lucky to have pretty good fishing right here close.

    In early March I fish a lake that is fairly shallow but, it is a big lake. It is 93 miles from my house one way. Then in early to mid April, I make my way closer to the house, then my drive is 20 to 30 minutes.

    I am very fortunate, I live right between two lakes, Cherokee and Douglas. 30 minutes to either one.
    I always fish Douglas though simply because I know that lake. Guess I need to find a new best friend to show me the hotspots on Cherokee.
