Good job... I broke a tip on the same rod today catching one of the baby 14" MO crappie. A 14" up here might weight 1 1/4.
Ha, those 8' B&M trolling rods are as limber as a spinning rod. I tried to lift a 1/2 lb catfish in with it and "snap".Quote:

Took my daughter to Wolf today, Scott. We longlined from 10:00 till 2:00. Hooked one fish. Started fishing 5' water around trees single poling and caught 8 good ones in about two hours. Wrong time of day? I don't know.
There's always MINNERS!!!Thumbs Up
I'm still trying to get the technique down. Plus I didn't fish but about 4 hrs. I think I'd do better at Okatibbee spider rigging jigs along the stumps on the creek channel.
I had to give up on ll'n and go back to what I knew would keep my daughter happy. I'm like you, trying to learn, and it is hard to concentrate on ll when you know you can catch fishes the old way.Quote:
