Saturday, Sept. 4 dawned a cool day in the northern Mississippi delta. My
boat sits in the water waiting for action as I turn my attention to the action occuring in the tops of the pecan trees. I reach my squirrel limit by 9:00am and retrieve my son from the dove field and we manage to get in the boat at 12:00 noon. We checked every stake-bed, treetop, and stump that could be found and managed over 40 crappie. I didn't take the time to take but a few pictures this time...

Those look like fox squirrel to me, bet some of the jig tie folk would love those tails.

["G"]

Yep....need to send those tails to Scottv.

[Release to the Grease...]

[Tracy Swanson]

[STUMP HUNTER]

Congrats on your day!! It will be hard to top a day like that.

[Don G]

Congrats::: do you ever fish Beulah or Whittington?

[riverdeltaguide]

DonG,

Been to Beulah once, years ago and I've never been to Whittington. I've spent the vast majority of my crappie fishing from Desoto Lake northward. I actually think that the further south you go in Mississippi, the worse the crappie fishing. Although, there will be MANY on this board that will take exception to that statement.

Especially those who love my home waters of Ross Barnett...
