O WELL what can i say im a sucker for shallow fish i like to see that cork disappear and a big,ol black crappie on the line.............

till next time good fishin guys ,, wildman

Now that's what I'm sayin', watching that big black angry bastage come out form under the thick brush and tryin' to get back in.

Nothing but love for you Smoke just helping people out with info and if you are fishing with Brian you will learn from one of the best. Hey EB what is the latest on SLABMAN!!!

MRB, have I had the pleasure of your acquaintance? You didn't by any chance fish the upper Deep Fork a week ago last Sunday did you?

Oh, and yes, I've fished with EB before. I was going to promise to smoke a brisket for him if he would help me set my duck boat up for spider rigging.

Did you start fishing early and they moved up on the banks late? I see your 1:00 first fish and was just wondering?

I think the problem was it took me that long to find the fish that had not been pulled off the bank from the falling water they were not really bunched up anywhere that i found i would maybe catch 15 or 20 fish in each spot really had to fish sloooooowly just to get em to bite... what do you fish ouy of maybe i'll see you down there one day i fish down there quit a bit

thnx wildman

I talked to Slabman last week, he sounded good but still not able to get around until they get that knee replaced. They plan on trying the knee replacement this summer. I saw Dumbo down on the creek catching a few out of the buckbrush and he was real sad catching those fish without slab by his side! EB

I kept 16 keepers yesterday evening here in Longtown, Cork/jiggin 6' fow. set @ 2' off a point and blacks mixed with whites. No biggies just good eating size crappie. I'm shooting a video....when Josh fiishes the edits I'll post it on this board and our website.

What has Head country BBQ and other topics to do with post spawn crappie fishing?

Because smoke in a post earlier said he was going to smoke EB a brisket for rigging him up for Spiderrigging. I told him if he wanted any tips there that I would give him some. That I had learned from one of the best BBQ teams in the world Head Country.
