They do that out at Indian Creek. Can't leave them in the boat! Get ready to go in the morning and they are eaten or running free from the overturned cricket cage.
Ha ha...like that....thanks for the pics Anne
Story of my life fellas dealing with the crickets this time of year. Ya'll have heard this before from me. I will buy a tube full, and maybe get a dozen or two on a hook eventually.
Such a pretty little bird, I wouldn't mind feeding him a few...but he'd have to let me fish with some too!
that's funny.....reminds me of a trip many years ago.....we paddled our flat bottom back to the landing for a soda pop and pulled it up on the bank a little leaving our tackle and poles in the boat....when we came back out, there was a chicken sitting in the boat with our fishing pole line coming out of its mouth....it had swallowed the cricket on the hook deep....nothing to do but cut the line.....the chickens "craw" will digest anything.....
Love it, I am a bird nerd , but they eat my tomatoes I had to finally hide my plants behind the house.Quote:

All crappie today were small, roughly 6 - 8 inches - pitched them back. The white bass are everywhere, catching them regular. Pitch them back as well, don't care for them. Decided to pick on the bream. You can easily fill the cooler with these:

I have several in the live well right now. Many are larger. Pitched back probably 10 for every one I kept. I'll take a picture of them all once I pull them out. Sunset here at Toledo Bend:

Life is good.
Sounds like a great day.....thanks for sharing
good pictures Randy......You make it feel like we are there......
Dad made a lid out of plywood for each of his cages to keep the crickets in and the birds out.
Is that the same thing as shooting fish in a barrell
Nice pix Anne. I bet Randy took the one of Hemphill BBQ. lol Did you get a coconut pie?
Fished today with my new fried Prowler (Alex), really enjoyed it. Will most definitely do it again for sure. Very fine fella. These are nice:

It sho looked good. Made me hungry also. Wife has a dumpcake in the oven right now and its smellin good. Can't wait for it to be ready.
Dang Randy....all I had for supper was grits........
Randy, your making me homesick for Toledo Bend. Ann did a fine job with the camera. Lots of 'em Blue Birds on my place.
Well Randy, at least he didn't go after your shiners! They were right there for the taking also! Anne, GREAT PICTURES!
Yep great Pics. I thought that bird was sure smart to get in and out with a cricket. How much time will the bird get for cricket thief?
We had a wax worm thief on Memorial Day - helped himself right in front of us while we were fishing!
