CONGRATULATIONS to all those who fished. There were a few who did not present fish to be weighed in, They had some nice looking residences in their livewells.

Perfect weather for a great day of fishing. Not sure how many boats we had but I do know the Lake was on fire..... fsugreg and I caught 48...specktacklure and coffeecup caught 89...and several 2+lb fish came to the weigh-in. Flycaster will probably be posting some results soon. It was great to see everybody and good to see our ole' buddy "speckdetector" made it out. Here's a few photos:

Congrtaulations to the winners :cheers2 :santa

WOW, one of the best day fishing Lake Monroe I can remember in some time! Today I had the privilege to experience what a great group of guys the Florida CC has representing this great sport, Andy aka
"Crappieday" took me out on his boat & knew I hadn't wetted a line in a few months & was eager to make sure I got on some fish by placing me in the back with 6 poles, while he was content fish'n 2 up front.
As it turns out 2 poles was all he needed, we had a blast & there was a 1&1/2-2 hr period that we were steady pulling up 1 quality fish after another, I believe (7) 14" which crappie slayer Andy took care of 6 of them & well deserved his 1st place showing....YOU THE MAN....but more important the camaraderie was second to none & that alone was the WIN WIN. All you guys ROCK & I"m glad I got to see some old friend having what is shaping up to be a banner season. Here's a pic, notice the tail, that bugger tried to haul !@#$@! when he seen Andy on the other end, but no can do he nailed him!

It was great seeing you again Jeff. You couldnt have been with a better person. Cant wait to see some build pics of the new sled.

Sorry I didn't make it there guys. Nobody wanted to go on Saturday (football games) so I stopped at Crescent and had a great day. I have been Speck fishing for a long time but this was my first time longlining. I loved it! No wind at Crescent!!?? I got lost in the fog but caught 17 once I could see where I was. Still looking forward to meeting you all. Maybe at Crescent Saturday!

As much as I enjoy catching fish myself, I truly love seeing others and helping others catch fish. I would have been just as happy to just sit up in the front of the boat and watch Jeff catch fish but the pesky specks had other plans and kept biting on my jigs. I had tied on 1/8oz jigs on the two rods so I could fish up front of the boat and not get tangled up with the lines out the back. I know some of you can fish 10 or more rods at one time but I am just not that good at long lining. We were running around 1.15 to 1.3 mph and on the front rods only had about 30' of line out. A lot of the bigger fish came on an ugly dark orange/black with chart tail and were caught midday before the clouds disappeared. I am still waiting for the water level to go down and my river fishing to start, single rod jigging and casting. Tight lines to all........

Andy....you ok? I've never seen crappieday (the quiet one) write that many words in one post.
