My 50th Birthday Cake/Lake Dardanelle Crappie, WOW must be the Water/5-21-11

Went back to Lake Dardanelle with My Dad and Uncle fished from 4-8 PM brought home 31 good ones and released probly 20 more we could have kept. I have been missing the boat for years on this lake, But Thanks to RTARK I wont be making that mistake for the rest of my time on God's Blue earth.:)

LOL A strange thing happened when I caught a slab with my jig stuck in it's belly that I broke off nearly two weeks ago when fishing with RTARK. Never had that one happen before. RTARK fishing in his boat My Dad and Uncle all couldnt believe it either.LOL

Finally here is a Pic of my 50th birthday cake I celebrated this month, My wife took a fishing pic of me in my boat to Harps grocery/bakery here in Conway and they transposed it onto my B-Day Cake. LOL I was truely amazed at that one!!!Hands Clapping

Happy birthday. Good catch. Never caught a Crappie with a lost jig in it, but last summer caught a Channel Cat with a jig in his arse hole.Rofl

Never looked that close Nimrod, I said belly... but ya never know my Uncle removed it before i got a good look when he pulled it out of the net hole. LOL

Happy birthday Russ. Nice bunch of slabs

Nice catch. I know that cake surprised ya too.;) Congrats and happy birthday.:)

that cake is a treasure and so is getting to fish with your dad and uncle. take your dad as often as he will go. your uncle too.

Happy Birthday bro! NIce fish.

happy b-day russ and many more slabs for u.

happy b-day man nice crappie

Wow , I didn't know it was your B-day. You sure had a happy one. Glad I got to meet your dad and uncle, they were having a ball. Yesterday was the worst day I have had in a while. I was peeod cuz my seat base ripped out.. I almost fell backwards in the boat. I tried to balance myself on the pedestal but that hurt my back and standing really got tiresome but I worked on it this morning and got it fixed rock solid now. If anybody wants to know exactly where Russ caught them, it is waypoint # 29. Happy birthday!! Ray

happy bday and congrats on the great trip. i love fishing w my Dad too!

Happy birthday CP welcome to the club!!! Great catch.

Nice haul! Happy B day too! I broke a fish off several weeks ago around some cypress knees - went back to that area an hour later and caught the fish. Didn't know it til I cleaned em. It was already in his belly. Thx for the story.

Happy belated b- day CP! Stay on em man.

Happy Birthday Russ

Thanks Guy's. RTART I do believe Waypoint #29 will be very good to you for a long time to come especially up around that 7-8 foot end.;) I try and always give back to those who are Kind to me. LOL
