Thank you ciller. The cell is a samsung, the snap is pure laziness! (with a flash blade attached as a temp solution untill my T&T jigs arrive)

Fishers, you realize you were within less than 100 yards of Reaperville. Holler at me next time you're at Talala Creek.

PM me your number Reaper, I will shout next time I am thru. Forgot to mention Ciller, one nice thing about that blade on the snap swivel, it smacks against the metal snap and lead head giving off good sound and vibration.

Fishers I am living vicariously thru you, glad your getting to fish a bunch!!

Redge, I think a lot of us are doing this as well. lol I know I haven't been crappie fishing in forever.

I am fishing this weekend. Unless it rains another 6"!!

Finally got back out on Oologah on Thursday with my buddy, Kyle. I know you guys will all feel sorry for Kyle when I tell you that he had never seen a crappie until he moved here a few years ago and I introduced him to the one true fish. I took him out in the Ciller Cruiser and taught him everything I knew about catching dinks in about 7 minutes. He has been a pretty faithful paper mouth fan since. So the first 4 piles looked too empty to even fish and no. 5 produced a lot of sharp thumps but few fish- we moved further north to the Will Rogers area and found some willing to bite in 20 fow from 10-15' deep. By far the hot color was blue and chartruese and by 12:30 we had 29 on ice and 83 on the clicker. No really memorable fish as most of those we released were the typical 9" Oologah dinks and keepers maxed out at 12", but it felt good to feel the thump and of course the solid whang of a good hook set after several weeks away. Also personally scored the mini slam of doubles as I caught (1) 2 crappie (2) a crappie and a sand bass (3) a crappie and a catfish- my first triple double of the year so Westbrook has nothing to fear from me! I gotta take Fishers photography class cause these pics are terrible but in my defense it was hot out there and we were fishing anchor free so not ideal Kodak conditions!

That sounds like real good fishing to me, especially in this heat.
