Well the Oologah Tournament was postponed hopefully we will see you there Josh. EB

Took an old friend fishing today- he is still trying to get the hang of feeling the invisible bite but the girls were cooperating and he got better as the day went on. I couldn't resist hitting the water on such a cloudy and wind friendly day. On the water at 7 and quit at 5. Caught fish from 8-14 fow mostly off the bottom . Nothing but minnows for me right now. I have no pride whatsoever. We caught 220 crappie ( as Ledge knows I have a clicker and am not afraid to use it) and kept the 25 heaviest in our estimation. Top 7 weighed 8.23 lbs. and the big girl was a boy- a 15" male @ 1.78 lbs. Miss Beazley made the trip and will sleep well tonight.

C2_ will you stay with a pile as long as they bite even if it's mostly short ones or do you move on after a few shorts looking for bigger fish? I'm a move on kinda guy. About 5 shorts in a row and I'm gone.

If I catch 5 shorts really quickly then I will probably give a pile a 5 minute warning. If I don't catch a good fish in that 5 minutes I'm gone. This lake has way too much brush in it to hang around waiting for Big Bertha to come around- right?

Ok Redge "take notes" .......... you stop and catch 5 shorts FIRST .......... before you drive to the next pile.

If I had my boat and could pre fish how I wanted it would be a for sure deal, with dove and deer season around the corner it is definitely unlikely. Next year is a different story

Nice catch!! I've yet to get into a nice school of them. I'm still learning how to catch them but my first task is to find a good producing brush pile. Been marking all I find with my GPS.

Ciller you are killing me with you unbelievable 220 crappie in one trip. I could not catch that many if used a fish net. The Great grandson and I fished Oologah Monday from 9 till 3 we found about 20 sand bass not 1 crappie, were long line trolling with crappie lures. I hate sand bass as when landing one in comes 3 or 4 lines tied in one big knot.

I thank my problem is not knowing what I'm looking at on my fish finder. Got to learn how to find brush piles.
