Lake Conway, structure work 1-15-10

Gentlemen, let's try and shoot for a group gathering at Dano's Around 6 and 6:30 Saturday night, bring your structures and your boat and yourself and we will really work on getting the pool put back into shape to be one of the best crappie fishing hole in central arkansas. It we have enough structure we may even be able to put some out around the bridge pillars and train trestle supports. I am making up some brush bundles to make brush piles. Sorelipsnofish says he is going to make between six and nine stake beds on pallets to sink in the pool. The more structure the better. And helping hands will be needed to get it all put out. If you all have hand held gps units, it could be handy to load in what you sink and then we can swap coordinates of sunk structures after the task is done we can exchange our way points.

you may want to shoot the weather that night.

In the event of unfavorable weather condition, we will try to regroup unless everyone is ok with the weather then we will proceed as we had originally planned.

i was just messing with you slab but i do think it's supposed to be a good chance of rain that night but not knowing any of you i would almost bet none of you would melt.

Olduckhunter, I am betting you are right, we won't meld, since they are calling for freezing rain, but that's nearly a week out. To predict Arkansas weather that far out is nearly imposible.

The weather guesser can't predict it 1 day out.

you are right about that but i can predict that none of you will melt.

So how did the structure building go? It has almost been a year since ya'll put them out. Has anyone caught any fish off of them?

I think Slab is like the rest of us at the beginning of the new year and forgets 2010 has passed :)

No it wasnt Slab, it was slabsntaters I was giving a hard time with the title to the thread. I'm still signing checks 10 and thought it was funny that I aint the only one. Sure am glad 10 is over hope 11 will be better for work and fishing

You got me there, I did not catch that, I don't think we can travel back in time, so I will put a update to that title In This thread, it's 1-15-11 for the structure work on Conway.

SORRY BOUT THAT, ITS HAPPENING ON 1/15/11.

Hey Dano, do you mind if we gather at your place, and use your ramp, this is for the greater good of everyone that we are doing this. You may even want to go along and sink some brush piles that you got around your place. I think we all will greatly benifit from this little project.

I would love to help.
I just started fishing there.
I have boat, gps, no brush.
Let me know, what i need to do.

well we need for some people to bring concrete blocks, big chunk rock, materials that are heavy enought to send the structure to the bottom of the lake. Just a thought, for any one who has no structure or access to materials to build structure.

Ok
can you give me an estimated number, you think you might need?
I will pick some up.
Where do you think is the cheapest place, too?

I have 3- 4ft x 4ft stake beds built and more to come by this weekend..i doubt i get any brush..Hopefully i will have 9 stake beds..

yeah sure taters come on with it,great going!

Free is the best I have never bought rocks or blocks, If you have any friends that have land on hills or up in the hills, field rock works great, I would not want to have to buy weights or want any body to, there is free materials around if time is available to get it. Blocks and rocks purchased is more expensive than a gallon of gas each peice.
