I went Crappie fishing till it got too hot ! Caught plenty of small ones on silver/white jigs. Kept several 10-13'' Crappie and enough hand sized ones to fill my limit of 20. Wound up with about 1/2 gallon of fillets. May need to hit the Catfish again soon.
Fewer fishermen out today. Guess this heat is about done got too hot for most.
it is difinitely hot, after yesterday i stayed in today think i will go again tomorrow!!!!!!!!!!!
Perfect weather. Throw em on the aluminum deck for 20 minutes, salt, pepper and eat. Deck baked crappie.
wtg Nimrod, too hot for me.
Hotter than I want to hit it.
wtg man. I need to come up that way one weekend and try then nimrod crappie out. I haven't fished it in about 8 years or so.
hey jw we need to plan us a trip that way when it cools off a little???
sounds good to me meat. I used to fish that lake quite a bit but since I moved from little rock its quite a bit further and I haven't fished it in a long long time. I know nimrod has been putting structures out and the lake has much improved.
Hey Nimrod, glad to hear you are catching enough to make a mess.. Think me and my buddy and his dad are thinking about coming up Thursday morning and fishing until we get too hot.. If we do I will PM you so that maybe I can finally meet the infamous NIMROD!!! LOL I will let you know...
Good Job Nimrod. Ive just been pounding the Trees and stumps of Lake Conway lately. Heading out in just a few as the sun rises. But by noon im done it's hot out there lol.
As you know there is'nt much shade in the middle of Nimrod. I usually last till 10 or 11 am and then am burn't out! You must have a little shade on Conway or your tougher than I am these days. Will tell ya though the bigger fish seem to bite more after it gets hot? Guess they are hunting shade or maybe a cool spot in my cooler. lol lolQuote:

Looking like Lake Nimrod may be full this weekend.Planning on being there also.
Seems like they are 8 to 10' of water . Heard Slabbandit and his boy say they were trolling a little shallower. I jig structure and bigger fish been hitting after it gets hot! Try 1/8 oz leadhead with silver flake/ white 2'' Southern Pro Umbrella tubes. They match the millions of small Shad you can see in huge schools. I stay close to creek or river drops.
Would'nt be a bad idea to get the coordinates to the Corp tops. Mainly the last 4 refurbished by Corps and Crappie.comers.
