Craig , He is a pretty good trainer. He already got BigDawwg sittin and fetchin for him. Sittin still on the boat and fetchin the landing net when needed. !! :Rofl
With the amount of Crappies that Remus catches Bigdawwg doesn't get much exercise!
wish we Amanda and I could.... But we'll be fishing a SCCA tourney on greenwood next saturday, But for those that go I'll tell you this and maybe it'll help the fish are mid-way to back of most the creeks @ state park we fished the Camden Shriner tourney saturday and weigh in 11.55 lbs (7 fish) and it took 13.05 to win good luck and keep them coming we'll make all we can!
Ya'll better knock the pollen off your rods. Wateree is hoppin right now. Even Remus may catch one. Come on out and join us for a bit of fishin and lot of B. SN. MAY EVEN SEE BIGdAWWGG DO FLIPS.
I hope to go. So far I have the day off for vacation unless the county flops on it's backside. I haven't fished Wateree in a long time. Does anyone know where we are going for crappies. What creek or what bank, what are we doing? Jigging, casting or long line trolling? Who's going? Some body say something. I hear myself thinking???? Where are you fishermen? :popcorn
Hey Dawgg ! We gonna fish in the water mostly. But then again... Who knows. Ya welcome to ride along with me if ya want. Think my crew has backed out. We can longline or shortline or no line. Long as we fishin. Looks like most everyone has to much to do that day. But I will be there. Ya'll better get off the couch and come on. Weather lookin good so far. How bout it Wiskerwhipper ? You and Raccoon up for some Wateree slab huntin ? May be couple of guys from work comin down. S.S.Minnow is turning to the bad side. They gonna go bass fishin that day. He is still in crappie training. Hard to break them young kids of bad habits ya know. Ya'll better lock and load. This is for any and all C.D.C members .family and friends.
don't know where or how but im going fishin in the water :biggrin
I'm going down tusday a.m. taking uncle out for a while then its yard work for loooong time
aint done no cleaning or cutting this year they be dump truck loads pine cones and needles
yall come on down we got couple pretty good prizes to give away
ofishlbizzness, I'll go with you, no need to drag my old boat down there and fish by myself. I don't care what we do as long as it is fishing. How many rods do I need or am I just going to be the retriever with the net? I'll get up with you later for arrangements. Looks just like four of us. :fish Oh well!
Has anyone noticed that this thread has gotten pretty quiet since Remus left for Wateree Tuesday?:fish I hope he leaves a few fish in the lake for Saturday!!:deadhorse
If it wasn't turkey season, I would come, but sat is opening day, can't miss that.
wish i could makeitbut gotta guidesome buddys on a turkey hunt i willbe there sunday tho may try the crappie if the stripers dont cooperate
Had a good time fishing with ofishlbizzness. He learns quick like a grasshopper. LOL He showed me his favorite places and his old home site. We fished hard as the wind really pushed us around, his new I pilot worked just fine considering the circumstances. We didn't have any skunk on us but it did look like I was going too until I finally got a crappie on board. The stripers were small and a good sight if they are not kept, there should be some good fishing in the future.:welcome Met up with Remus and fishfinder8 after it was decided that we should call it a day and check out the catches. We had the crappies and several big perch and Remus and fishfinder8 had a bunch of perch in good eating size. It was a good day accept the wind wasn't invited. :mad: Cat and bass guys filled the parking lot at day break but didn't hinder us any. Thanks guys for a good day!:fish
It was a bit windy was'nt it. But all in all a fun day. Caught a few nice slabs. Some huge perch. And a bunch of small stripers. There will be a good crop next spring if people dont keep the little fellows. Had fun with the Dawgg. He makes a pretty good teacher. Put the I-Pilot through its paces. Did as well as possible in 25 mph wind. We pulled jigs and minners from 6 fow out to 25. My buddy Charlie and Mike did fair on crappie also. They had one at 2.2 lbs. Butch and Dolton had enough of the breeze and cut out bout 11:00. Actually Dolton was hungry. You know how teen age kids eat. Remus and and fishfinder8 did o.k. Maybe our next outing will be calm and dry. Thanks Dawgg for ridin along. Maybe fishfinder8 took a cooler shot before he cleaned em.
Sorry guys no cooler shot:bash I had a great time on the SS Remus#2. With the Gale force winds it was tough to keep the toon where we wanted but we were able to catch some perch and small stripers! Thank you again Remus for the ride. But I'm not sure if I believe the minnow net got your pants all wet????????:yikes But everyone knows that you can't tell a lie :biggrin All joking aside thank you again for the ride and listening to me!!! Maybe next time we can find us some slabs?:fish
Do you really think Remus listens to anyone? You should have let him off the toon to use the woods.:Rofl :biggrin
OOPS === :biggrin
had A great time with fishfinder8 == didn't do as well as first part of the week but now that we know how to fish in a hurricane we want to take yall on again so when yall ready == bring it on lol
hey Craig you are welcome on the uss uncle remus any time you get a chance to go.
we caught a lot of 1lb. perch and slab daddy crappie up to Friday but sat. just was not our day. found plenty fish but with the wind the bait went by um so fast they couldn't tell what it was :dono we knocked off bout one and had a little bull riding in parking lot then headed home and ran across a nice bass boat sitting in back of nice pickup yup in the bed of a pickup bout a 18 footer == yup someone rearended one that rearended one that rearended the bass boat that put the boat up in the bed of the pickup. took bout 30 min. to get through that mess but had a nice safe ride on rest of way home. looking forward to next outing with the
"wonder what might happen next" fishin crew :biggrin
