If this cold front doesn't screw em up I'm calling a 2.33 as big fish. In no particular order my top 5 of the big fish catchers are Conway, CrappiePro, Slabbandit, Meatgetter and BillyE!!! Now represent my fellow Minner brethren, lol.
Let me know what you guys think. Lots of good fisherman will be on the waters of Nimrod this weekend.

Probably so because all these boys have fished it quite a bit. Advantage always goes to the home team.
don't back down now !!!! that no excuse he did'nt pick nimrod either !!!! he knows that a minnow critter is going to win!!!! the big fish will be less than 1 3/4lb!! on a good day!!!! i won last year with a 1lb 3oz!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I've caught several over 15'' and a couple over 16'' lately on jigs. But this time of year a 2lb even will be hard to beat.
I wish I could be there guys.....I have to work Sat morning till noon then it's out to cleanup day at the deer camp to start gettin ready for the hunt. You all are gonna have a big-time blast and I would give anything to be there. I had thought there might be a slim chance of getting to go but it ain't gonna happen. But you guys catch one for me...... BTW, I hear that purp/char Might be a good Go-To color to start with...hint, hint :ThumbsUp :biggrin
I am not backing down now meat gonna give u a run with my jigs. Plan on tiring onto your boat and picking up the ones that scatter from your minners!!!!
There will be lots of great fishermen, and someone will catch some good fish.
Who knows, it may be some bad fishermans lucky day.
Can I bring one from somewhere else like JW did in at the spring camp? Lol

Hey CJ - Ther will be open seats. If my partner has a no show because of work I was thinking about parking my boat Saturday and fishing with arkbowhunter to do a real test on jig vs. minnows. What do you think ABH! I will put the money under my minnow bucket so it dont blow away.
You know I can't make it, so yer safe!!! LolQuote:

Better not rule out ole Goose and Nimrod :Rofl:Rofl:Rofl
There wont be no front seating me ABH. You will be on my right. Like they say," Keep your friends close but keep the jig fishermen closer".
IM calling 7.3 on the big fish. Buckwheat's gonna be there an.d nobody's said it had to be a crappie.
I bet it don't take 8lbs on any 7 fish stringer.

You all don't forget J Westerburg is fishing with Conway on the Minnow side that's gonna be a powerfull team to beat. Those two can flat put a hurting on ya at the scales. Trust me I know.
As far as big fish im going to say a fish 1 3/4 to 2.0 will win it. Most times when I fish Nimrod at least 1 or 2 fish are really good ones out of my catches. 1 1/2 to 2lbs. Hard to believe someone wont duplicate this or better out of all the good fisherman fishing this weekend on Nimrod. That's what i see anyways. I do believe in minnows on Lake Nimrod. They Love them.
Nimrod's fish are like crappie anywhere else thier mood can change and a simple color change, or minnow size, along with pattern and Technical change can make all the difference in the world weather or not your catching allot of dink's or keepers and slabs. It pays on this lake to try allot of different stuff to key in on em and draw the bigger fish bite. This is due to the fact that they have been so well trained on Purple metal flake and chart Jigs they can't help but to bite the real thing or something different. LOL
I definately feel like that the size will be up a little from spring camp with most folks bringing in a decent "kicker" fish or two.
Slab - get off the computer and go fishing! See you around 4 today
I can see (remember) by yer picture why phone booths went out of style. They fit to tight, just like yer spandex!!! BWAHAHAHAHAQuote:

His spandex are made by John Deere. They got a yeller stripe down the side and it says 4020.
Ya'll just jealous. 1 square yard of spandex can cover a lot of ugly:biggrin
