She says .....

I know you went Tuesday morning with someone to the state park …..:yikes
I noticed that very sly look in her eye as she tossed it out there Friday after work …..
I said ….in my mind .....whoops busted …..:crazy:
I said ….yes I did how did you know ?
she said ….because I know you go there every Tuesday on the way to work …
whoops busted again ! :yikes
I said ...well I know him from another forum and he wanted a crappie dinner and told I would help him get one and that we did .
I don't tell my other half I go to sometimes 3 different lakes a day as it sounds like I am crazy ….:Rofl
I also don't tell her how often I just pull over and spend 20 minutes trying to ketch a crappie in any spot that has water in it along the way …
so you see I may not be on the water long and in most of the cases lately I am on the bank . now to further complicate things I also might be pitching something that defies imagination in an attempt to see if I can get a bite on it .
case in point ...this time of year fish get pretty dumb and as it often seems I get even dumber . so in the many photos below you might notice lots of different jigs in lots of different colors . the bite ranged from very good to not so good .the fish ranged from pretty darn big to not so big . some were up high in the water columns and some were down on the bottom . some were on cover and some were not . some were lost and some made it to my hand ….
and yes a few reptiles I saw here and there as well …..:Rofl
and in the end ….that's my story and I am stickin to it
here are a few of the photos from Tuesday to Friday ….
have a nice weekend and hope you enjoy :cheers2
KABOOM is the word btw :highfive
p.s. I have a few other selfies available upon request ……..lol

Nice catch.

Nice pictures, fishing from the bank and ripping Crappie lips successfully is not an easy task.

Ketchn, i have a question. Been wanting ask a long time. As i read all your post. They are great. Do you fish the creeks that feed into reservoirs close by. This would be big vreeks. Or do do you fish any little creek with deeper water? I ask because ther are bunches of deeper creeks around me in south bama. None feed into reservoirs. Havent ever thought of crappie being in these smaller creeks.

John Deere, go outside the box and fish anywhere you’ve a mind to. It’s educational and surprised prising where you will find them. The other species are just icing on the cake.

:highfive Kaaaa Booom!

Nice summary of your week. Looks great.

anything I have even the slightest notion might hold a crappie would be my answer and in many cases some that should never have a crappie .
that said one of my favorite locations is a river that runs thru ft worth called the trinity river , it has several forks and is pretty deep in a few spots and up stream miles away and downstream miles away there are crappie in abundance .and as skeetbum says you will also find other fish to keep it interesting along the way .
side note ….way up stream shallow above a big lake soon will be all that when it gets cccold ...
