Well my fishing buddy wanted to go get in he action so I loaded up the boat and headed out again. We got to our spot and dropped the poles out and they were slammin them pretty good. We started out fishing about 3 foot deep but soon moved our jigs shallower and the bite picked up even more. We fished 12 inches deep in 7 fow and had a blast. Saw another fishing buddy there and he had put a hurting on em too. Colors today were white and yellow and silver/chart. We trolled around 1 mph.
Nice! Good job!!!!
Great catch J.W.!! Those are some good slabs. If you don't watch out Autumn is gonna be takin over the boat and putting you in the back, LOL !! BTW, That's exactly how I was catching the big one's out there last Saturday. I think some of the other fishermen out there were having a hard time believing that I was fishing only 12 inches deep in that 7 ft water and skimming along at 1 mph but that's exactly how it was. The Crappie were hitting and inhaling those jigs like feeding sharks!! They actually took my jig and broke the line twice before I could even get the rod out of the holder. Get 'em while its hot....there's another fairly local lake just fixin' to bust loose in another week or so!!
That's some good un's!
Man o man those are awesome sweet job!
Nice and GREAT Pics!
Good stuff
That is a great fishing partner you got there.
Had some guys ask me too how deep. They changed and started catching some. Autumn had a blast and i did too watching her. She kept saying "dad hey are biting too quick" as we had double and triples on. She would reel one up, swoop it ip in the boat and hand me the pole. I was constantly taking off fish seemed like.
Fine fish and a fine little partner too. One of these days they gonna have to let me loose from work long enough to find some of these good fishing holes y'all got here.
X 2, and looking at the way she handles a slab crappie I'd bet she knows her way around a boat too.Thumbs Up Congrats to both you guys on an outstanding trip. And thanks for sharing the report & those pictures.:)Quote:

Saturday I had 56.5 F around 2:00.
About the same down here. Hmmm...everybody is still fishing deep in 25' of water here. Maybe it's time to check the skinny water.Quote:

Those are some good fish! You got a cutie for a fishing partner! I used to have a partner like that but she is all grown up now.:( Cherish your time with her.
You and your little partner done good.
Thanks guys. I do cherish my time with her and my othe daughter. I am blessed that both are great kids. The youngest one in the picture sure can handle her side of he boat for sure. I love to see her get so excited when we get multiple fish on. She also knows when to call for the NET lol. The water temp yesterday was cooler than the weekend 52.5 degrees. I had been fishing a little slower but man they wanted it a little fast yeaterday. It seems like everyday is a little different. A color change or speed change or even depth change or is needed to stay on them.
That's Crappie fishing, LOl ! ! ! !
Nice job, J.W., and some nice fish!:highfive What a good looking fishing partner too! It don't get no better'nat!!! Thanks for the post and the pics.
Sounds like a good trip!
Great fish and memories. You did good
Nice Job JW and what a adorable young Lass you have there. Maybe one day she will teach you new methods in slow trolling.
