chilly mornings and a chilly start as well
Nothing doing while I waited for my boat ride to show up , one bite and it was bass in 20 minutes .:banghead
got in the boat and ran to a spot that showed a few fish on the graph , 20 minutes passed and one tiny crappie ......:banghead
even went to a tandem set up , more baits maybe ...? :dono
about an hour after daylight , it all became much clearer , these fish were all night feeding and resting at that moment in time ....
when i rolled up in the dark, the moon was a big as it ever was and the surface activity was beyond stupid .....
such was the start of my full moon episode without any mask .....:Rofl
went with another combo that is a heavy set up and tied on a big ugly jig next ....
started long casting in a fan like direction up onto a flat from out in deep water and slow rolling my big ole ugly across the bottom ......
it was about to be a not so great excursion it seemed and then .....
KABOOM and it was ....net please , this is a big fish for sure .....:highfive
repeated the technique until I had to go off to work ...
used the net several times and for sure they were as tight to the bottom as they get .
conventional methods of crappie ketchn did not apply once again ....
left with 20 and 3 of them were in the really nice size range ....
AND one was a rare in that lake , FOOTBALL black crappie ....:yikes
KABOOM was me and is the word .
