One hour........ no fish, only wind. Dock was bouncing in the waves and making a strange sound akin to a blacksmith forging a new sword. But did hook into something, not sure, but might have been a catfish, but whatever it was was big and strong, took my minnows on the crappie rig and wrapped them around some pvc structure and had my rod doubled before escaping. Came home, had a bite to eat, then laid up in bed all afternoon like a wino.
I hope the crappie return to our dock by this weekend. Stink, are you going to come watch me catch them again on Saturday? :Rofl And no, I'm not going to give up my favorite spot. :biggrin
Pappa and Nip, if you guys strike out at the triangle on Saturday, come on down to Rock Creek Cove. If we are at the dock, come and join us. Even if we don't catch anything, it's still a good time shared with friends. Mine is the 2-slip dock next to the boat ramp on the East side of the cove.
I'm going to join Pappa and a very special guest in his boat come Saturday. We'll be on a hawg huntin mission.
I'll be at Thunderbird this weekend. We were just at rock creek cove last Sunday though.
Nip, what time were you in Rock Creek Cove last Sunday? Stink and I were fishing on the dock from about 11 - 3.
CHECrappie -- the triangle is the area between Hwy 69, Hwy 9 and Hwy 9A. It's a pretty large area. Lots of sandies caught along the rip rap along Hwy 69. We always see bank fishing going on just inside the triangle by Hwy 9A bridge where large rocks are located. When the water was down, there's an area just South of there that exposed a sandy beach area that was accessible by land. Now the water is up, that area is submerged (but not deep enough to take a boat over it).
Reaper, the offer still stands for you, Pappa and special guest if you don't have any luck in the triangle - come find Stink and I at the dock. I'll have a cold beer ready for you.
