Reelfoot 3-10-12

Well folks we fished Reelfoot on Saturday and the wind was pretty tough. We managed to get 10 crappie and 1 stripe jack. We were using juiced up baits with a black & chart jigs and that was all we could get them to hit on. We fished out from Green Island to Swain Basin in water that was 10 to 12 ft deep, with the fish holding around 8ft deep. The were not huge but it made a great supper. I hope this wind lets up because the boat control was very hard. I had a great time and I can't wait to get back out there and try them again.
Good Fishing,
Lynn

Nice catch Lynn. I was down there too. I was down around Swan Basin. I met Cracker68 while I was down there and we had a decent chat. I only caught 5 before I had to leave, but I had one that went 2 lbs 2 oz.

Nice fish Lynn. You're so right, the wind was a booger and it didn't let up in the two days after you were here. Of course, now that we're heading home this morning, the wind is supposed to be lighter and not gusting as it has been since we got here. Still had a great few days though.

I'm sorry you Paul were not able to get some good days out there. It just don't take much wind to get Reelfoot rolling!!!
