Isn't Sardis 4 poles each so 8 poles total? Thinking it is but I haven't been on Sardis since last summer
5 poles per person.
but tournament rules are 4 per person with a max of 8.
Boy, wouldn't that be a pain in the butt. 5 poles per person, 2 people and pulling crankbaits with 10 poles. I get tangled up enough with 8 so I usually run just 6 now
Noticed at times you'll go 3, 4 or even 5 times and not lose one. Then you go 1 time and lose 5 or 6. Hurts I tell you
Stop pullin in the stump fields dummy!
DD get some 5/16 stainless aircraft cable and you never lose another crank baits.
Thought that 20 lb braid would help out but the places I been fishing lately on the rez have ALOT of stumps on the bottom and I've been bumping it off the bottoms. HOPE to try them this afternoon
The braid was just more trouble for me. Thought I would be able to pull them loose but instead it just got tighter and tighter until it almost pulled the rod out of my hand and I finally broke it off. Thought I was going to strip the gears on the reel. After this happenned a couple of times I went back to my 10 lb.
Either use a short piece of dowel rod and wrap the line around it several times and pull OR pull out line and wrap it around the rod multiple times (at least three or four times) Wrap it above the handle. Then pull to break even 80# braid. Either way works great. On Crappie I don't use the dowel, but on catfish I do.
I usually get pretty lucky but these are some serious logs on the bottom I've been getting on lately. Guess I need to quit chasing those darn Stripers. LOL
Did somebody say Chasin Strippers????????

Only Rule That Will Be Changed So Far Is The People Per Boat . Can Have As Many As Boat Will Carry But Can Only Fish With The Poles Required For The Lake X2. This Will Keep It Fair To All. Per Sat
I though is was 2x lake limit? Does not matter to me 8 is enough.
I stand corrected if you want to fish with 10 go head on. Eight is plenty for me and sometimes thats too many.
we'll go chase StriPPers later on that evening:D Ain;t no way I'm running 10 poles out my boat pulling cranks. Nope, not gonna happen. I'm to accident prone
Insteat of turning left when you come out of the channel, turn right. Good drop offs but fewer stumps.
There are several logs laying on the bottom of the area that those big stripers are hanging out. 2 ditches, one on each side of the channel come in within 100 yards of each other and that's one of my Striper spots
DD I told you I had some bandits for you to look at
Several weeks ago, there was a benefit crappie tournament on Sardis and one of the sponsors was a campgrouind with cabins and I din't believe it was the state park. Any body know what I'm refering to?
Next week some time if ya Can. Meeting my brother for lunch today and HE'S BUYING !!!!!! He asked where a good place to eat was and you know where I tolt him. Hummmm, let me think, Bass Pro has some decent food, I'll meet you there. Course I tolt him this AFTER he said he was a buying LOL
we will meet up next week, I got to get some more fishing out of my system first. Going ot head out again around noon today.
Go pull Cranks at the rez. TRUST ME. I fount me a new Crappie hole yesterday. I picked up one really nice one and I was marking more than just that one. I didn't even know this place was around but I was looking for another place I heard about, then ran across this one by accident
