Longlining w/Scooperdude 5-17

After Scooperdude let it know he was wanting to learn some crappie fishing techniques,,I told him Id show him what (litttle) I know.We made plans for a trolling 101 and met at cane creek this morning.After a quick lesson in what and how we were going to troll we were off to a slick calm morning thank the llord.We caught a lot of fish mostly small but kept 29 for the knife.Heres Scooperdude with his first ever longlining crappie

I think I got him wanting to take up crappie fishing now.The ol 'striped' fish are still sorta scarce at wateree.
Anyway the Lord blessed us with a very nice day on the water,with fish to boot.I enjoyed your company Grady>

Good job and nice fish.

Cool report, enjoyed the pics

We had a great day on the water . I learned you don't need to be a rocket scientist to catch Crappie so I'm all in . I have to start looking a gear( gee hard life when you HAVE to go shopping for fishing gear) sam is a good teacher . The clicker counted 84 fish hit the boat and Sam took 29 home. Sam was nice enough to let me catch a lot of fish, I don't think I;ll do as well next time :-)
Thanks Sam!!

Good report and nice job teaching a newbie longliner :) Glad y'all found the crappie biting today and found slick water this morning, have not been many days without wind. Will be watching for your longline report scooperdude :)

Way to go Sam. Ya done put the itch on another one. Great report and Congrats to Grady on his first lonline fish.

Now that's getting after 'em! Every day doesnt always produce those numbers but then again some days produce alot more. Sounds like a good trip and some keepers to take home as well. Congrats to both you guys.:)

Sam I think someone has hacked your email account. Over the last month I have got a couple emails from you with just a link that doesn't look like something you would send. Just a heads up...

Thanks Bioguy.I need to look into that for sure.I didnt send anything,I do know that..Check your PMs,ok..Thanks again for the heads up.

I forgot to mention that once again Crappie.com member ship has come thru with help when it was needed. Thanks to Sam and everyone else, this is a wonderful group of giving people.

Ya'll done good. I miss fishing wateree, I wish they would stock the striper back in that lake.

Great report and just another reflection of what a great group of guys (and gals) hang out here. You will be hooked for sure after catching that many the first time out. The invaders like catfish, stipers, bass etc. keep it interesting. Never know what will hit next.

Sam,
Nice report and you are the best. I will always remember your kindness. You took me and my grandson out for a night trip for cats on Wateree. He really enjoyed that night. God Bless You.

Nice report, always good to see a member helping a member. Looks like the lesson paid off nicely on this day.
