Nice catch Dennis. Think we are going to have to buy you a camera though. Not only are we missing out on pics of those slabs but your fishing some pretty water and I know theres a ton of photo opps.
Are you planning on comming for crappie camp?
Dafshklr, are you fishing the chain lakes below Brasfield? Also, are they open to the public, private, or do you pay to fish?
Gooch, if I didn't know better, I would think you were trying to call his bluff...lol...just kidding...... It would be nice to see some new water pics and more slabs.Quote:

Crappie Camp maybe in my future, don't know quite yet.
Yes, the lakes are a part of the Cache River Refuge, open to the public. 5 lakes within 2 miles of each other. BIG fish there if you can stay away from the gar and snakes!!!!!:eek:
I did pretty well despite the wind and cold myself, fishing till 8 pm both nights...... Kept 24 between the 2 evenings, with 3 of them being good solid 1.5# fish.
I know it took a LONG time to warm up once I got inside Sat night! ;)
Not a joke for my feet!:D They got a little cool this weekend...
The cool snap was probably a good thing. Those water temps needed to come back down to where they should be right now...not 75 degrees.
If you go to the Off Topic page, at the top of the page, the second link down, i did a post for those having trouble posting pics. Check it out.Quote:

I had a couple 1.5 lbs. and 3 about 1.25 Fried up 4 biggest and it was too much for my son and I. They were on brushpiles on channel drops.
I put out a new stake bed while I was out.:D
