little maumelle River crappie

fairly new to site and been reading threads. everyone is soon helpful. this looks like a great site.

am new to the little maumelle River and hoping to get a decent starting point to search down a few slabs. minnows or jigs, I do both. never have tried trolling, just single or double poles.

any info would be greatly appreciated.

paul

Welcome to crappie.com.

thanks, RCC. Hope to be a contributor as time goes on. Paul

There used to be a couple of guys that fished LIL Maumelle often that posted on here. We had a brush pile party about 10 years ago. You might still find some of those. I haven't fished it in a while. But, I used to do pretty good around the bend from the Marina in the Spring time. Welcome and good luck. DP

thanks DP, will start in the marina area and go from there then. will give report if I catch any. might wait till tomorrow though, wind is stout today.

Did you ever know a guy named Ken Puckett who played at UCA?

hmmm, the name sounds familiar, but I don't think we played together. I played from 1967-1971. Bobby Tiner was a senior when I was a freshman.

Puckett was a 4 year starter at linebacker and played while Tiner was there. Not sure what years. Good friend for a lot of years. Go to Homecoming game with him every year he goes cause he and his wife stay with us. Just thought you might have known him.

I started all four years as well and knew the linebackers, so he must have graduated a year or two before I came in. go Bears!!!

next time you see him, my name is Paul McGinnis.

I'll tell him next time I talk to him. He lives in Neosho, MO now. I'm guessing he graduated right before you got there.

Welcome from Jonesboro.

thanks slab. paul
