Short Greenwood report

I went to Greenwood yesterday afternoon (11-21-14) and fished for 3 1/2 hours. Took awhile to start seeing much but when I did find them they were stacked together but just didn't want to bite. Through all the fish I seen only caught 5 crappie and 20 perch, the white perch are willing to take the minnows.....
Tried jigs tipped and a #2 gold hook tipped with minnow and the hook was the one that caught all the fish. The fish are not real tight to the bottom but the biting fish are. The morning bite may be a lot better than the afternoon. Good luck to all that fish this weekend.

A picture from the camera and I have some screen shots I'll post as soon as I get them loaded from the Lowrance.

Sounds like a good trip to me, I've certainly caught less many times. Like the screen shot, you have it dialed in pretty sharp.
My wife fractured her ankle last Saturday and is struggling to get around so I'm sticking pretty close to the house for a few weeks. Guess I'll miss the early winter bite.

Hate to hear the news Ray, hope she gets to feeling better soon. A ankle takes awhile to heal and is very painful.

Stump I fished greenwood Friday morning and did worse than you I could not find any fish willing to bite. I figured out after the fact I was not fishing deep enough. Better luck next time

Ray, sorry to hear about your wife. Just strap her in a seat and take her fishing. If you do all the work she won't even have to get up.

Don it's great to hear you are back able to fish :ThumbsUp
I had all my lines set to 14' deep and tried to stay in the 15 to 20' depths. Didn't see anything in deeper water and as the sun dropped I started working up in the water column. After I had reeled up the lines I did see a good bit of bait in the shallow water heading back to the ramp.

Stump glad you had a good time and caught some fish. Congratulations on your catch.

Ray, sorry to hear about your wife's ankle. Hope she feels better soon.

Don, glad to hear your up and fishing! You'll get them next time.

I'm off next Friday and thinking about going to Greenwood so if anybody else is thinking about going let me know maybe we can meet for breakfast of lunch.

good deal stumpy glad you got on some fish == like the pic of the d/f

Sounds like you had a good time.

Good report Stumpy. They can be picky this time of year.

Ray ' Hopin the bride get's better soon. She did'nt hurt that foot kickin on you did she ?

No, Mark she actually was coming to get me at the Wildlife Club after our outing Saturday. I had stayed afterwards to help clean up and she had gone home and was on her way back to get me when she missed the bottom step of the garage and fractured her ankle.

Ouch!!!!! I hope she get's better soon..................
