Keep an eye out for the 200 - 300 bass boats fishing the Tyson tournament Saturday:D:eek:
Never fished Hurricane Bay before but I have been having good luck trolling jigs tipped with minnows in about 30' of water next to the standing timber.Quote:

Good Luck.

Be careful of the weather supposed to be NASTY:(:mad:
Especially on Greers. That wind can come up from nothing and turn that place into an ugly thing in a hurry.
This is the best advice I have, take a umbrella, a rain suit and a small bucket to bail water with. And Dont hold your crappie rods to high in the air, they can turn into lightning rods.Quote:

If Greers got the rain we got in Batesville the bilge may not be enough.:eek:
Between the storm, the tourney, and just not wanting to wrestle the wind...I decided to stay home and cook steaks!
Wise choice.;)Quote:

By the time I got on the water, it was drizzeling a little. Then the bottom fell out. Called the son to look at radar and he said it was about to pass over. Found some shelter and ate lunch while it passed; then got back out there. I didn't count on the wind after the rain. It was scary. I found some coves to fish in and kept getting hung up. I anchored so I could retie one time and lost my anchor. I don't know what it was hung on, but, I finally had to cut the rope. The ride back to the landing was like being on the North Atlantic. The swells were at least 4 feet high.
Over all it was the trip to Hades to try and catch some fish. But, I managed to put six in the freezer.
The highlight of the trip was the buffet at Benton's (Bently's??) in Greer's Ferry. I tried to get my wife a job there. But, I don't think anyone took me serious.

She ruined that idea by telling me that if I quit working, she is too.:mad::(
