[Gone Fish'n]

If you are talking about where I am thinking--I went in there one time and almost had to leave the Ranger and haven't been back. But I have heard some good accounts of nice slabs coming out of there. Now Potticaw is a different story, you are talking about big ole river crappie. My dad had a houseboat there and he and I spent most weekends fishing for slabs when I was little (many a good memeories there friend). That is one of those places that you got to know where to look and one would find it hard to tell you where without showing you--man you making me want to go fish'n right now!

I tell you another place, but it is definitly a secrete. If you put in at Shinglemill landing, go west up the river you will come to the mouth of Black creek. Instead of turning up Black creek, stay in the river and go to the next inlet, it runs parallel with black creek. All of the local guys refer to it as baby black creek. If you have a deep V or deep draft boat don't even try it because it is full of cypress knees and other stumps. Go up the creek until you come to a large bend, can't miss it--you will see the biggest willow tree you ever laid eyes on. There once was two willow trees there and a hurrican blew one into the creek--so there is one under the water and one over the water. Cast a gold willow spinner with a bright green tube right into the willow limbs. Of course be prepared to lose some rigs and slabs, but the ones you get to the boat will make it well worth the effort. I may have to take the rest of the day off and go fish'n
