Thread: Late report from weekend

man oh man i can't take anymore i need to book the next car ride east to be on the crappie boat . we are awaiting a winter weather storm here in the western part of the state thursday though the weekend .

fine job tearem up and g duck keep them lines tight

Went after work for a few hrs. scouting a spot that was good last feb. . Found some there not as thick but they may get that way as it gets colder, my buddy from work kept 10 for dinner and we prolly got 20 or so more.Alsogot 2 rockfish 18 1/2" and 19"they were fun on 4lb. test.they hit the fin-s met for the crappie.Water temp. was 49 should drop this week mite bunch em up.

well no fishing here today was raining and noone would go with me hate fishing by myself . and now it says on the weather that we are to get 6-10 inches of snow by sat go figure guess i waited to long here or may just have to tough it out and try a snowy crappie day lol.

Ive got many crappie in the snow yellow perch too.Maybe you ll get to ice fish soon ,personally I hope to have a mild winter like last year down here its cheaper on the heat bill and nicer to fish in .

Scott,

I agree with Tear. Some of my best days were when it was snowing.

Tear,

Nice job on the crappie. I'm still working on issues with the boat so I have been fishing some of my shorline spots with little success. I keep hearing you should have been here 2 weeks ago. I'm off the next 2 weeks so maybe I can get the boat going and score some slabs.

Mike

I'm sure we've all heard the you shoulda been here stories to many times I know I have .lol The rock are going crazy right off the beach and in the inlets rite now but I guess Ive gotten lazy or just like crappie fishin to much and just been taking the jon and doing that instead of the maycraft in the ocean like I used to,anyway hope you get your boat right and go get em ,good luck.

Thanks Tear. I did catch some Rock up to 25 inches with my crappie lures. They wouldn't take any surface lures so I just ripped a bobber over the surface with a 2 inch plastic shad 2 feet below. They hammered that setup. They were still in the back tributaries last week.

Mike, I was fishing Middle river on Wednesday, this week, using the same set up and had good success... old school, but effective. YP, LM, Pickeral, Rock, all shallow. No slabs however and ML was dead for me.
