Well I slept in and went for a crank fix. The bite was slow but I managed a good box of crappie. The color didn't matter much and the fish were in clusters. I did have several doubles and my first triple for the year. Had an unexpected guest that have me a concussion when he entered my boat. Knocked me good and I was seeing stars. My boat looked like I was a crime scene when I regained my senses. Attachment 165492Attachment 165493Attachment 165494Attachment 165495
WOW! Did it break a rod? Great crappie!
Youch, I bet you did see stars ! Nice crappie!
Am betting he was running when it jumped in the boat, nice fesh, glad you are OK!!!
If he hit you in the head poor fish did'nt have a chance.:Rofl I have heard of those jumping Carp but yet to see one. Been told they were good to eat .
I hate silver carp ... What lake was that on??
Nothing like a nice relaxing day of full contact crappie crankin'!
Glad you ain't hurt bad
Congrats on the triple. Condolences on the flying' carp! Glad you're okay, dude!
Looks like a good initiation to the land of the river lakes. We're watching out for them constantly down here. Be thankful it was only one and he was in a good mood!
so they can also be caught in Arkansas cranking!!!! :biggrin: nice mess partner!!!!
Nice catch.
Cranking the next thing on my list to learn sounds like a blast minus the flying carp nice box of fish congrats!
Catfish bait there... Plan on putting out several trot lines on my next 7 days off. Good crappie there too. Ready to try me some more crankin' too.
Great post
nuthin i mean nuthin like pullin cranks
Dont u know he wont say what lake,know for a fact some guys on here showed him alot when he started which was not a real long time ago,if u dont think thats right ask some guys who are always on this site in private and see what they say.
Yep I have been taught by a lot of folks. Always credit due where it's due. I along with others don't always post our fishing hole lakes. Nothing wrong with that. Most stuff like that is done through pms and not on the open board.
Let's see
Steve and David white for starting me spidering
Jerry gross for help starting spidering
BRM for crank baiting
Crappie pro and Greg lunden for single pole
Nimrod for single pole and catfishing
I hope I didn't miss anyone. Crappie boy not sure who ya are but I don't recollect your name as your profile is incomplete and you have only posted 28 times since 2008.
I have tried to do the same with other folks on the site. Who have you helped or what contributions have you made crappie boy? Wait I looked at all your post and see they are all asking questions, bashing me and not helping anyone!! I see you have attended the crappie camps and seen how much effort has been put forth from myself and others.
Can you say what you say when we have never met. It's easy to say negative comments when you don't know someone and hide on the computer!
Glad you okay. Been attacked myself. Nimrod, I think you were misinformed. We eat anything , pretty much, down here in south Louisiana. But have not found anything good to do with those silver carp, except feed the vultures.
Crappie boy, if you want to get more info on where fish are being caught you could PM bowhunter and then he we probably give out more info on the location he is catching fish. I don't post pictures of my catches any more because of the crowds that are at your fishing area the next time you go back.
lol!!!!!!!! another goober stirring the pot, JW dont fall for these kind of games, he got just what he wanted, i think u know how most folks look at this, those of us on this site that have made the effort to get to know and fish with each other have learned from each other as well!!!! now when do i get my next lesson? hehehehehehe!!!!!!
might be a little to late for a PM now!!! Dono!!!!Quote:

Well for me it's a lot more about telling a story sometimes. Anyone can look back at my posts and his and see for them selves. I don't even know this fellow as he has never called me or came to crappie camp and introduced himself to me that I know of. Posting pictures of your catch I personally Iike to see. Idc who they are or where they come from or how many fish they catch.
I can tell you though it's attitudes of folks like crappie boy that turned a lot of folks off from posting. If you notice not many of the old timers post much anymore or where they are fishing.
I guess crappie boy since you know so many folks then you can call me anytime and personally ask me where I caught my fish. I am sure all the folks you refer too have my number. Wait I am sure they will give you a personal report too.
I dunno what that is, but it looks like what my buddy in North Dakota sent a picture of the other day. I'm betting it ain't a crappie!! :Rofl
:banghead
oops ... didn't mean to rile up crappie boy or anyone else with my "Where" question ... I really just hate those dang things and try to avoid them at all cost!!! I've been hit square in the face by a silver torpedo and ended up with bruises like I had been in a fight and lost.Quote:

You know it, basscat offer still open. Glad to share info with ya.
Goober even took me fishing! Out of the blue. For no reason other than...he just did. Sounds like an evil man, huh?
Now, I gotta admit to a high degree of serious jealousy over his boat setup...........not that I'd REALLY steal it while he was not lookin' or nuthin'.........but it's sweet and mine ain't. But hey. I'm cuter.
Hey buckrub you forgot I got to watch you catch most of the fish, which stage of fishing does that put me in lol. Enjoyed the trip .
My guess is the Goofy Stage! You caught 'em and I reeled 'em in. How Goofy is that? :Rofl
Yeah, me too.
P.S.
I ate 'em. Neener neener.
