Fish rumors you gotta laugh
A couple of weeks ago my neighbor an older jent. who is an excellent crappie fisherman caught a limit of fish and told a few friends since that time I have been hearing reports that the fish were tearing it up on Lake erling out of cypress point where both my neighbor and I both live as I headed out of the boat house this morning I noticed about 6 boats crappie fishing on the channel out from cypress point I went on fishing not at cypress point but further up the lake had three people stop and tell me that the fish were really tearing it up out of cypress point well folks nobody was catching fish in cypress point area but the rumor mill was going strong and probably still is the origional limit that was caught was not caught at cypress point where will remain a mystery simply because the older jent. who caught it would never tell you where or on what color that is just his way I fished with him on and off for 15 years set out tops with him but I would not even expect him to offer to tell me how or where he caught the fish except in general terms people would be much better of just to start fishing and find their own hot spots my hot spots are only good for one or two trips very seldom am I able to catch fish sameplace sameway two days in a row maybe I am a bad fisherman but if so that is the way it is I will gladly share any information with anyone simply because I know how hard it is to consistently catch the elusive crappie but rumors can cause you to spend lots of time in the wrong place you gotta laugh. By the way neighbor had 5 today and I had 6 not exactly tearing it up.
