Started fishing today about 11:00 AM. Fished mainly between Sarge and Pioneer Cove. Today was a tough tough bite. I had a lot of bites that felt like perch, but when you could hook one, it was a crappie. Met DStreet at 3:00 and only had two fish in the box. I ended up with four or five and D Street had 6 or 7. Probably missed 30 bites. Weird day on what has been a tough summer on Kaw.

Yes, D Street caught more in 2 hours than I did in 7.

I should its my back yard!! Dont worry its gonna get better real soon!!!
STILL LEARNING!!

I haven't fished Kaw since spring.

Let me give you all a word of advice......never retire.

Your fishing time goes to hell.

Your wife and friends will load you up. Your day starts at daylight, your day ends after dark. It never ends.

We won the Midwest Crappie Trail Classic on Kaw last weekend. We had 18.04lbs for a two day total. Pre fished brush on Friday and nothing for tournament fish. Caught our fish on Sarge bridge from 14-24FOW. We used 1/2 jigs with Crappie Pro Wasshoppahs. We strolled the rocks about .2mph and did a method called snap jigging. We would hit the rocks with our heavy jigs and snap them up about 1 to 2 foot. The fish would hit them mostly on the fall back down. We caught them this way on other parts of the lake in rocks. You might want to give this a try as they are feeding heavy and will not be in brush when feeding. Hope this helps.

The secret is to not tell anyone you are retiring and just sneak off to the lake, keep a boat on the side at the marina.

Dennis you're scaring the hell out of me. If that's the case, I'll never retire.
