Thanks. What area of the river is good now?
did I mention the creeks off of the main river ...............better get em early ...nearing the end....got 40 today from 8 till 1100 ON THE OUT SLACK TIDE TO INCOMING...TOOK Jeremey from Kansas that was inquiring in another thread we were back fish cleaned and a dang good crappie lunch by 100...awsome day met a great guy that knows what a fishing pole minner and float are for....
today was a little longer....got in at 730 out at 130 had 56 in the live well between 3 of us water was 74.6 when we left....these Kansas guys are some good ole boys...duckman brought his traveling partner and he was a little rusty but shined up just fine and wont long was slab slinging.....I am done till FALL............over 700 slabs in just over 2 weeks I am a blessed man.........PEACE...........
Thanks Slacktide! Me and my buddy had a blast, one hell of a guy to take a couple strangers out on the water and put a hurting on some crappies. Caught Kept and cleaned over 40 the first day and 50 crappie the second day and caught every bit of 120 in the last two days.
That is incredible. I'm assuming these are tidal James river crappie? If so, did they have those little red worms? You can usually just take a knife tip and pry them out. I've always wondered why the river fish have them and the lake fish do not. Congrats on the success all.

some of the fish do have parasites they are called..they are two types ones hard black like seed the other kinda wormish look....although this year not to bad they were some with both ...the guys from Kansas said they have them as well..its from the birds and their droppings . ...and lake fish have some as well, different strains of parasite different areas.....all are safe even if consumed....if we get one thats bad we just trash it we have plenty more usually..........the fish have eat well for over 30 years .....some will bring up this topic when their skill set or equipment doesn't allow for river success....that's all good I just prefer the rivers ...went today as I had 4 or five hours to kill and 30 minnows went for 2 hrs caught sixteen on some new structure nothing over 13 14 though..........time to get 24' boat out the yard and get salty............PEACE
"their skill set and equipment"...Wasn't my question at all and I have done well on the Rivers before, but I do thank your for the info. Like I said in my previous post "congrats on the success all" and I mean that.Quote:
