Critter escape!

Well its been a long time since Meathead and myself fished together. We snuck off to Nimrod where we patiently waited with binoculars to spy on ol nimble head. It wasn't long before Meathead spotted him but he was quick in the drop and we weren't able to pinpoint nimble heads location.

Meathead had some new critters try out and i couldn't keep em in the boat as the fish kept jumping in and eating em up. We managed a nice limit of fish though as i fought to keep the minner critters on the hook. I am gonna have to get a latched box to hold them critters in the boat next time. We found the fish were scattered around the lake. I cant tell ya the secret new color but maybe Meathead will get them out to yall soon. He took mine back at the end of fhe trip. Well the dang things really jumped back in his tackle box as they his are trained crappie citters.

Jerry nice to fish with you and appreciate the gas money and letting your minner critters out of there crib to catch us some good ol nimrod slabs.

Couldn't get any pics of the new line up of critters as the darn things had to be kept locked up!

Ain't that nice. Minnow Fisherman Unite !!!!

Also had a good time jw glad you got in on some "Critter"Action and seeing ole nimrod putting a whipping on them with ole "Spanky" also !!!!

Nice catch guys.....

ABH, looks like its time to change your signature, don't you think? It should now say, "Minners alwys welcome"

Guess we can overlook a little backsliding from time to time.

Looks like you might be mellowing with age, J. W.! That is, about the "no minners here" part of your signature. Maybe change it to "Minners here every now and then" :Rofl Glad you guys had a good day on the lake. Looks like y'all hooked up with some good fish.

Hey Jerry. Is the new minner critter catalogue being mailed yet? Give me a call when you can. I have a question for you. Thanks

Ski

Good Job Jerry...Looks like Ole SW is kinda starting to warm up to minners and critters. Thought i would never see the day. It's A MIRACLE ...HAHA!!!

Hey russ just goes to show you miracles do happen! !!!! "Critters " make Believers !!!!!

Baaawwwaaaaa, you guys killing me. Right on Ski minners every now and again don't hurt he he he.

Hey nimble i might even take up single poling if you take me some time and show me how. I will go blind folded so i cant find your super secret holes and i will still be able to feel the thump. I even got an ozark 11 ft rod but no reel yet for it . I may be able to doodle sock with it though lol.

Might have to show ya how to kick the minner habit for good.:twocents If ya learned how to work a jig you might be able to completely ''Spanky'' the minner habit for good!:Rofl You could sure lighten your tackle with only a pair of Ozark rods , a few Spankys, some 1/8 leadheads, swivels, and Southern Pro Umbrella tubes.:twocents

truthfully abh really claims no miners here. No coal miners, gold miners silver miners. no miners of any kind. Now as for minners....all bets are off.

Well blow me down!!! These are strange times indeed...... J.W. is backslidin', and with minners of all things! Hey, nothin' suprises me anymore....just remember they are only supposed to be used on special occasions...... LOL!!!!

Look like you and Jerry had a great time JW. I got to get out a drown some critter soon myself. I thinking Jerry was nicer than that. Cant believe he took them all back left you critter free. :Rofl I let you use some of my use ones I have :biggrin

Hey steve it was special occasions he wanted to catch some good fish tired of eating catfish !!!! Lol

Well nimble lets get the first new rod a workout and I may look at another rod then If I can get the hang of it

Them minners are slick ABH, but they work!

This is true. A jig on a crappie nose is a good as a minner any day. Just ain't many good enough to put a jig on a crappie nose any day. Not more than 1/2 dozen people that post on this board can do it and I'm not one of them.

Your target'n the wrong end Curtis! Ain't you never watched a dog sleep'n? Let a fly land on his tail and he'll snap it out of reflex.:Rofl

:Rofl You know that's right. You need to delete that post. That may be your secret. If they see the jig coming, they know it's fake, but if you slap their tail with it you get the reflex bite.


Hey...I bet it is just as hard to put a jig on a crappie tail as it is the nose. Probably no more than that same 1/2 dozen people can put a jig on a crappie tail:Rofl
