Carl Blackwell anyone?

So here it is winter again and I have not heard much about cb. It seemed to be the hottest thing going last year. Any reports?

It's been good, but not as good as last year. While some people are getting limits, others are getting skunked. Colors, styles and techniques seem to vary from day to day. I had my worst day this morning, with only nine in two hours, mostly on a slab slayer cajun cricket and a blue and pink hair jig. Tried plastic, marabou, and hair, fishing at seventeen feet; then off to church.

Definitely not as many people this year. This morning, several people were skunked. I got 21, mostly on black and pink. Then Fred showed up and started smacking them with his slip cork, right where someone else had gotten zip on a slip cork in an hour and a half.

I believe it really needs to get colder out for it to be on fire on a more.

I agree DrNip, in my experience the better catching is during the colder mornings. I was out there on Dec 6 and 7th, Sat morning fishing inside sounded good and the outside was a little slow. I fished outside for 3 1/2 hours and took home five 12inch crappie and broke my line on what I assume was a saugeye. Sunday was worse, at least for me...nothing inside and outside I only kept 4 out of the 3 hours I was there. Everyone and all the crappie seemed focused upfront around the ramp. But the trout pond there at Blackwell is nice when you don't catch any crappie! I got home early enough Sunday and built me a new toy, so that's a plus!

That oughta work ccwby!

Wow nice job. . .now you can get there later since your first thirty minutes won't consist of carrying your things.

I especially like the heater running in the background. The hand truck idea is great.

Nice looking hand truck, cowboy. I'm going to show Bigfishmama this post and see if she'll make one for ME.

Thin crowd today. Got 32, but 12 were small. Liked a brown/brown/orange hair jig.
