Fishing Report?

[Stinkfinger]

Anyone doing any good? I got a zero Sunday, Monday, and today; Tuesday. Just wondered how everyone else is doing?

I haven't really been lately. Last week (Spring Break): I threw a fly in the Lower Mountain Fork River and didn't get a bite. I threw jig in Lake Murray on the way back from Dallas and didn't get a bite. But I probably only fished for a couple hours total. I was wondering if that warm rain we got yesterday will trigger a bite... or was it even a warm rain?

well i fished sat and sunday guys and was able to pull out 16 good keepers on sat and only 10 on sun. i think i like the rain better than the sun! haha. i keep hearing that they are catching em on the banks, but i had no luck with that myself. pretty much all the fish i caught were in about 8 ft of water or so.

I'm fishing too shallow and all 3 days I was bank fishing. I'll fire up my boat this evening and try it again, in deeper water. If I don't have any luck this evening, I will be standing at the turn-off into the Wal-Mart store in Checotah on Thursday holding a sign that says; "Will work for Crappie filets"

My dad told me several guys from his work went and fished Cross Timbers Marina at Skiatook on Sunday and brought in a load of nice crappie. They were fishing minnows 8 ft deep in and out of the slips. I don't know if you have to own a slip to get out there or not but I know 3 people that own slips out there so I plan on getting out there to try it within the next couple of days.

I couldn't get them to hit minnows last week, it was all jigs. Everyone I spoke with yesterday fishing were using minnows, so I guess I will switch back to minnows for the time being. Thanks for the report.

stinkfinger i went down south of eufaula on friday and had 32 from the bank. came back sunday and had 21 from the bank. the morning and late evening bite has been the key from the bank. stopped up north sunday before heading south and had zero.

Hey guru, caught anymore since last weekend? That was a good report.

[bowman_1977]

Well, I'm not a very good fisherman, unless being hard-headed counts. If there are 15 people fishing around me, they will catch fish and I will get mad........ hahahaha. Oh well, its still fun. And occasionally I get lucky and find some dumb fish......some really dumb fish, and he takes a bite out of my hook and lands himself in my boat. I'm still not sure how this happens.
