River Bottom Crappie
Mud, mosquitoes, snakes , weeds and ticks. We had to deal with all these just to catch some fish :eek: and we enjoyed every minute of it. The river has been falling out big time this week. So me and the old man decided to do a little bank fishing today. We used minnows and were fishing about 2 ft deep. Ended up with 29-30 crappie (10-13.5" ) and 10 catfish (kept 6 cats). Dad caught most of his fish but I lost several, that's not unusual for me :o. We had a great trip today! Even had 2 of the catfish jump straight up out of the water when setting the hook on them, very unusual.
The old man still gets excited when he catches a couple!

Those are some good looking river fish. I am looking for jobs in your area so I can get down where there is an abundance of lakes. I love river fishing but the water is so high where we fish on the mississipi I can't see the stumps that I have to navigate around in the sloughs.
