Hope to get down that way early April. Looking for lodging with access to electric for charging trolling motor batteries while there. Seen Super 8 and another one in Hernado. Are these an option with electric hookup or is there something better or closer? Looking forward to coming down and catching a few big slabs. I don't even eat fish but sure like to feel the thump.
Ain't no fish in Butla...they all at Sardis, Enid, and Gernader
I stayed at that Super 8 once, with about 20 other with boats, they let us use the grass behind the motel and we all plugged into their electricity for the chargers.

We have stated in the town of tunica, not where the casinos are but the town itslef. The motel was called the plantation inn may have changed names by now. Not bad, good restraunt in town (blue & white). Back right up to your room, only about 6=7 miles to the dam.
Feelay, how far is it from Southaven to Hernando Point?
Thanks guys I will check into the one at Tunica also as well as the Super 8. I can always bring some MO fish down and put in there if you all think it is fished out. Speck sure likes Butla but you all have 4 or 5 very good lakes to choose from in NW Sippi. We may try Grenada while we are down there if the wind is not to bad one day. Like I said above I don't even eat them just like to catch fish and the bigger the better so may as well head south to where you all grow them big.
If your stay permits, you might want to try out Lake Washington, just south of Greenville. The crappie fishing there is real good with some big fish. They also have cabins with kitchens.
Just make sure you check the lake levels before you come there may only be one or two ramps with enough water to launch in early April or March. Its about 20min from Southaven lots of places to stay there, several motels right off interstate but I don't know about elec hookups. If you have a camper they have some good campgrounds down there.
Slabo, I have a sister living in Southaven and might suffer staying with her. We could call these tournaments the Crappie.Com Interstate Series. Start at the top and work your way down.
Crappiholic looks like you are a Mississippi State fan then you should be yous't to suffering......
Ifn you pull for any MS college, you suffer except Delta State.
LOL Crappiholic I am a OleMiss fan so we are like brothers with other mothers..... LOL
I will becoming down with Speck. He fishes all the area lakes a lot. We are waiting to make final dates on the trip based on the lake levels and prime time. 7 1/2 hour drive for me but he is a lot closer and will get the low down on when it is best for me to come down. Weather permiting we will be camping but wanted to have a backup plan that is dry and warm if the weather is not the greatest when we get there. Thanks for all the input. Will post when closer to time and we know when we are coming. Hope to meet some of you all that fish with Speck. I hear of lots of great folks and fisherman from down there from him. Thanks again for the help.
