When ya gotta go, ya gotta go! 2/18/2020 The Chick.

Well I wasn't in the mood to sit and stare out the window at the rain today. So the boat and I headed out for about 2 hours of fishing, that is until the radar said it was time to head home. I had a plan in mind when I left the house, and it panned out. My first and only stop today, between showers produced about 20 friends to play with. Maybe 7 of those were keepers. And they were fatty's. Water is still sandy brown, and getting lighter. Temp was 54 and steady, current in the creek where I was was negligible. My presentation was pitching my jig out and letting it fall to about a 5 count in about 11' fow. Then I just watched for the line to go slack. The bite today wasn't a normal bite the line actually went slack as if the jig had hit the bottom. Several fish I brought across the gunnel I didn't even know I had them on. Bait was 1/32 chartreuse head and Black/Chartreuse stump bug. Here is a few pics of some fatty's, they are gearing up for the deed. And if someone would, please correct these pics. All of a sudden I'm having a issue with it, no matter how I rotate them they upload the same way... :banghead

Good job.

That’s dedication! Well done!

That rain is pounding us here in upper E TN right now, and there are a pile of Smallies at my bank fishing hole just waiting for a treat to be offered. Oh well maybe tomorrow afternoon. Nice catch, and they do look like they are fattening up.

Slabprowler, it's called Dark Sky. It is a subscription app, but for $3 a year it's worth that. Once you set it up it will alert you ahead of time before the rain/weather gets to your location. If you look at that pic it gave me a 30 min heads up. :ThumbsUp

Mr. S .... you might want to upload the Crappie.com app and use it to post pics. I say that because phone pics that get turned sideways are an effect of site updates / phone updates and the site not recognizing the orientation code & turning the pics sideways. Seems to be an ongoing problem & more and more people are experiencing it as the updates continue.

You could always turn your phone to the right and just let the site "correct" the orientation, but that don't always work (been there). That's why I post my pics in the "Testing Area" forum, first, just to make sure they'll come out correct in the post ... then just copy/paste from there to wherever I'm posting them. But, I don't post from my phone (I use my computer), so I can't tell you how to do the copy/paste method on a phone.
