Lake Russell catfish

Jake and I { Fishing for Crappie] hit the RUssell last night to try for some catfish. Just around dark we had 52 jugs in the water waiting for the bite. After a breif rain show we headed back out around 11 PM to see if we had any bites.
We ended up catching 6 channel cats, 2 got off as Jake was bringing them in the boat. Went back out around 1 AM and had a couple more. We moved some jugs around, then went out around 2:30 to see what we had and go and pick up and head for the house ended up catching 2 that time around. Got home around 4 am we should have went ahead and stayed till daylight but I think Jake was wanting to come home, Ended up bring 6 fish home, pretty slow night but learned a little this trip. THe lake was nice and the temps just right for a pleasent night on the lake.
Here's a couple picture of Jake and the fish. Atleast he took fish home.http://www.crappie.com/crappie/attac...atfish-001.jpghttp://www.crappie.com/crappie/attac...atfish-003.jpghttp://www.crappie.com/crappie/attac...atfish-005.jpg

Why is my post showing double pictures I post 3 and 6 are showing. it's the same with the stock trailer under the sc classified double pictures posted their also.:confused: Could one of you guys delete my double pictures and only show 1 of each thanks,Doh

Good to see you guys caught a few Beagler. Congrats. You gone hafta teach Jake what a net is for though.DohRoflRoflSend me a PM telling me what youre baiting with and where youre fishing. Maybe I can help you out some.;)

Also, I took a look at your post and it appears youre attaching the pictures twice?!? Send a PM to Slab and attach a link to your post and ask him what's going on cause I cant seem to do anything with it other than delete the whole post.

Sounds like a fun night on the water. Congrats on bringing some home.

Sent you a pm beagler.

That is some nice cats and Jake looks like he is ready to eat a few pounds of fish Thumbs Up. Good report and pics. It's good to see y'all give a good run and next time you will have a few places to start the night at.:)

Congrats on the catch beagler.

You need to go get some glasses, if you look you'll see there's 6, one is hidden by the big fish look and you see the fin sticking up.RoflRofl

Remus sc has never been good to me.Rofl I was fishing the Georgia side of Russell, heck the way I understand sc laws I would have broke them when i threw out the first jug.Hands Clapping

I always regret not sinking you the day I seen you on the Hill;) Trueth is when I take photo's I just throw them on the bd don't try to doctor a photo up the way you do. You need to get on Jake about the size of the fish all I did was run the boat, he did everything else.:p:p Where's a picture of your fish RoflRoflRofl

sorry beagler!!! thought you said you and jake were comming to S.C. to camp and fish. my bad.
it is sort of difficult to understand one state from anouthers law when you have a lake on the line
i`ve never fished russell and only fished clark hill a couple times.
so i have a question about the licence deal between GA. & S.C. i`ll make a new thread on it

LOL. Now you don't have to go talking about sinking me. I must say your catch is better than I have had lately. Its hard to catch them when your not going.

You going to be around for awhile to do some fishing and hunting this fall, or is your work going to take you out of town??

I hope to be around, but who knows. Sitting on the lake or in a deer stand would do me a lot of good right now.Thumbs Up If I could hit the powerball, I could just join the retirement world with you and Butch.

...or you could just quit your job and be broke like we are.

Congrats on a fine evening of jug fishing. That's a nice mess of channel cats you have.

Nice
Looks like fish fry night.

this thread is very old,,but I'm heading to Russell tomorrow with family,,both crappie and catfishing,,,first time..any help would be appreciated,,,camping at Calhoun falls

Lots of crappie have been found on brushpiles in deeper water. If you have side imaging, ride around and mark a dozen or so and come back. Mark w a buoy and have fun.
