With 80 percent going out the spillway during the winter months, I don't begrudge anyone fishing legal, and working hard at catching fish to take up to their limit.

You typed a screenful there, almost wish they would pull em down early, like they did Nader last year, each year. There was very little snagging going on in the Nader spillway last winter.

Wonder why they said Enid in the same boat. Does game and fish believe that Enid has been hammered like Sardis?

Enid is not producing like last year so guess so.

There is a spawn missing. I threw back very few 11 to 12 inch fish at Enid this year. Those are next years keepers. Doesn't have anything to do with hammering. When we run out of these 13 inch fish, it's going to be slow. I will still go and enjoy my time on the water.

Not too many left on the 4 wheelers and trucks out of the lake bottom this year in Grenada. I fished ALL spring, and only know of 2 legitimate limits coming out of that water. One limit came in early March and one limit came on Easter Sunday.
I am not saying that there were no more limits caught Grenada this spring, but the 5-6 everyday fishermen I know did little to nothing all spring.
I would sit on the banks of Redgrass creek with 25+ people fishing, and would not see a single fish get pulled in. It was pathetic. NO need to go fish a toilert bowl for fish when THEY AIN'T THERE NOMORE.
In my opinion, newer techniques, better electronics, and consequently better fishermen have taken their toll on this lake. I hope I am wrong, but I do not see things getting much better till the pressure on this lake subsides.

Sad to hear that bout grenada. I live 45 miles from there and never fished it. Sounds like it will stay that way for some time. I don't know how much truth to this story I heard but Iam going to put it out there. A guy on Grenada was cranking last week and snagged a hoop net of some kind and it had thousands of crappie in it. Don't know how true it is but that's what I heard. Could have been a gill net. Just know it was a net. Maybe somebody heard this. It wouldn't be good if it was true.

Yall should start Bass Fishing again i heard them things are good to eat

Are y'all talking about the Grenada Lake in Mississippi? The one where countless record stringers of fish were weighed in at the Crappie Master's tournament? Like 20+ pound stringers? Where the average summertime fish average 14"-16" like these?

Is this the Grenada Lake y'all are talking about ?

Yep dats d one. And if people keep hammering it, pics like that will b a thing of the past.

I've never fished grenada ATM but if I did and there were fish to be caught I'd be catching. Iam going to give it a try when crappie masters come back. When is it you know?
