Fishing was very slow this weekend on LM. Had to work hard for what was caught. I caught 13 on Sat and went back today and fished 5 hours and caught 5 Crappie. They were bigger today and the biggest one went a shade under 17 inches and weighed 2lbs 10oz. I caught a bream yesterday that went 1.1 lbs and my friend Larry from Crossett caught one yesterday that went 1.25 lbs. Anyway, it was slow but a good time nevertheless....here are a few pics.
Nice catch the bite has been slow everywhere.
Nice fish
nice fish, especially the red ear on top,hope to be out there myself tomorrow!
Good looking slabs!
Good catch! Thanks for sharing.
Nice catch Steve, I had to work this weekend and kept thinking it would be nice out on L Monticello. Maybe I'll get to go during the holidays. Thanks for the report and pictures.

You guys have too many great crappie lakes in that state. It ain't fair.
Just another reason to love the south.;):Quote:

I caught these in 42-45 FOW fishing 5-8 ft off the bottom using chart/red BG's. Seems like I caught the bigger ones when I upped the speed a little. I tried the deeper water but mostly small ones there so far.Quote:

With the unemployment rate the way it is around here in the Delta some of these folks have to hunt and fish just to put food on the table! We better catch all the Crappie we can in these river lakes before the snakeheads take over!
Hummm those are pretty and fat..
