I've noticed quite a few new people to post here in the Oklahoma forum of Crappie.com lately. I'd like to welcome all of you to our online family that has made many good friends in real life chasing Crappie. Feel free to ask any questions as well as share your experience with the rest of us. I know I'm never too old to learn a new trick when it comes to fishing.
Once again, WELCOME!Hands Clapping

Is there a new member intro threat in the OK forum?
Threat? Did you mean thread?
Not really, when someone joins they usually just post up and say I'm new here, glad to meet everyone, and then we welcome them aboard.
Hello, I am new, I am also new to Crappie, will probably ask some really dumb questions, use same name on Catfish forum. Trying to learn how to catch the fish I love to eat so much, please help out a newby. Will get to fish a lot more since school is out for summer.
Well, they shouldn't be making threats. Especially being a new member.
Welcome aboard, kb. What part of Oklahoma do you reside in? I'm lookin to get into some catfishn this year so maybe we can exchange dumb questions with each other!! Hands Clapping Thumbs Up
NE Oklahoma, Ft Gibson Lake, Taylor's Ferry North. Live about 5 blocks from the ramp
Not very far from some good cat fishing for sure!
Already asked a few retarded questions but no threats as of yet LOL
If i don't catch a dang fish someone is going to get it @#@###$#%$%!!!
OK that is my first threat ....
Was supposed to go to skiatook this morning but the guy that was going with can't go till tomorrow so i am going to remortage my house and pull enough equity to go to BassPro today and buy a few things for the boat....
I fished Skiatook years ago a couple of times. Never really got into any size of crappie. I can remember tying off to standing timber at night and being able to see a shiner flash over 6' down. Is Skiatook still that clear?
don't think it is that clear but last sunday it was about 4 feet you could see the bottom in a calm area so i guess u could see a flash at 6 feet
Well i am going fishing tomorrow morning Reaper tell me where to go and find some fish MY boss is going with me so i need to brown nose the hell out of this ......lol
I couldn't even tell you where a boat ramp is on Skiatook these days, but Oologah has been red hot spawn wise. Seems that Crappie can be found along any bank on any part of the lake lately. I have no clue as to what yesterdays rain did to the fishing. I might take my daughters out later today, but I've got a spending spree to go on. One of the items I've been eyeing is adding the Sonic Hub for the Lowrance Hds 8. I'd probably have to create a station to house it though, my boat doesn't have much room for toys. Maybe I'll be able to turn the boat into a "Pied Piper" machine. I just need to figure out if sound would attract them. Dwight Yoakum, Pink Floyd, or R.E.M. should do the trick.

the waves at the boat ramp just west of the damn had the boat high centered so we had to back deeper into the water just about said to hell with it . But we got off the trailer and headed out into the first cove west of the the ramp and went back into another protected cove and latched onto some of the old tree tops and fished away caught a few hybrids on black and white plastic then bam nothing so we tried some minows and worms and caught a few more but no crappie then we caught several perch some small some pan sized. the decided to hit the bottom (which was about 17 feet) Then we started catching the **** out of cats the were small but fun to catch almost had a gar in the boat but chewed the line as we lifted it in...Anyway had fun loading the boat with the waves from hell . So in all we had about 16 fish you name it we caught it! all but crappie ......
As for me personally I just jumped in to these forums with no declaration of being a newbie. I love reading these topics and being able to understand what some of the techniques tht fisherppl use. Hate to say it but never knew what spiderrigging was until i heard it on tv and started looking it up and was brought to this website. Crappie up guys and gals!!!
