12th Limit in a Row/Lake Conway/11-2-11

After watching Me and my fishing partners catch four double limits in a row. I HAVE VENTURED OUT FOUR TIMES ALONE
and caught my limit also inbetween that time. Yesterday was a day of seeing only three or four boats all day long. Wont see that very often. With the rain and weather colder the Big Big Daddy's are starting to showup. Be ready they are tough, will test your line and they will make sure you know how to handle a rod. They will trick you into thinking they will give up with just a big slow wobble into the net. AND!!! EXPLODE ON YOU at the last second with a powerful run and break you off in the brush. Be Ready!!! Lake Conway is a Place where you can be dealing with a crappie of a lifetime on the end of your rod in an instant moment. Be ready!!!

Nice catch! I have to say I am a little jealous:o

nice fish russ "spanky" wants to go saturday but not sure if i will go!!!!!!!!!!!

Conway and Greeson...two more to put on the hit list! Nice fish CP.

Way to go Russ! That's the way to do it!! We are starting to get into some big ones down South here also.

Looks like the bite is on there like it was all summer on Nimrod. May just have to skip hunting a day or two so I can fish. Looks like your working them over.

nice ones wat did u catch them on?

How many fish are in that picture CP?

Nice pictures and catch

Nice catch CP!

You are tearing them up Russ.

Well, you and the war eagle are still hauling um in I see. I bet there was room to fish there today too. My buddy went to Dard the day I was at Conway and caught 14. He said two guys were there casting on the concrete and was really tearing them up. Some he got was 1 1/4 lb. That means the bigger fish are doing some fall gorging. Good going Russ.

Some real nice ones.

Wow Russ, that's 240 crappie, that's 480 fillets, you must eat alot of fish, way to go.

you can't beat the taste of the fried crappie fillets, keep whack en em, got to get them when the gettings good, I share allot of fillets myself so I know how that works, if you got fish there is always someone willing to take a few off your hands at anytime. The new rods look good in the packages still, I ain't had a chance to get them out to the water yet, I got two 11 footers and one 8 footer. Thanks for turning me on to them. Are you catching tour fish on a tight line or are you getting them casting? Keep showing them crappie who the pro is.

Kerry I am whacking them vertically in shallow water cover, but have caught some deeper and talked to some who are fishing deep vertically over the cover you put in last year. Get those new Ozark Rods out of the packages and get to whacking em man. Youll love em. They are one tough light rod and CrappiePro approved My Friend. See you soon brother.

Looking to go this weekend with my daughter any suggestion on were to rent a boat? and were to fish and at about what depth and with what? Man I know I ask alot but i want her to be sure and catch some fish. She is 14 so I dont have many days that I can take her or her twin sister anymore.

Russ- just kiddin about # of fish in pictures. At first glance it looked like one picture with you holding 2 and standing over 20.

Must be ONE HOT LAKE! Congrats.:)

Wow that one on the lower left looks like a hoss! Good job! Can I ask how deep you were fishing (I know you said shallow....). The girlfriend and I are gonna hit the Mulberry tomorrow, I hope we do as well.

Way to go Russ! Keep it up!

When I say shallow I am talking 2-3 feet of line hanging off an 11 foot jigpole. Dipping in and around bank cover. Always keep ur rod tip just about 6 inches or less above the surface of the water. Allot of times they hit before the jig settles. There is nothing like a 13-17 incher exploding out of one-two foot of water. It's the kind of thing that makes men lose their wifes over. It can be that addicting. LOL
