Went fishing at Sinclair this morning, right at daybreak, and fished until 11am. I was in my kayak, fishing 4 rods in about 15 - 20 ft of water. The fish I found were suspended at about 8 - 12 ft deep. I caught 10 fish in total. No big fish to really speak of, maybe the biggest going about 1 lb. The crappie definitely preferred a white/blue maribou jig tipped with a minnow, out of all the colors and varieties I was offering.
It was a great day to be on the water.
Welcome back GABoy, I remember reading your threads many years ago, I really enjoyed them alot, they were very informative.
Nice report! No pix?
Good report
Congrats. Sounds like fun in a yak. :)
Well thank you very much! I am SOOOO glad to be back posting about catching fish again. I sold my boat a few years ago, and had missed fishing every since. I came across a good deal on a kayak, so I jumped on it. I hope to be posting often!Quote:

Thanks again!
I had planned on taking pics back at the dock. However, I asked a man there if he wanted my fish and he was about to pull away so I gave him my fish and forgot to take a pic. Nothing too special on this trip honestly...the biggest one was possibly a pound. I'll try not to forget next time. :)Quote:

One more with the rod holders on it.
Next thing you know your Yak will have a trolling motor!!!! Hope you enjoy the Yak. Andy- 1 Cove
Honestly, that's exactly what I was gonna do. However, my buddy and I decided that we might go halves on another boat we found and rig it out for crappie instead. I've already got all the rods, etc. So, we are going to look at that boat this afternoon probably.
Good luck with the other boat. StumpHunter (on the SC boards) has a fully loaded yak, depth finder, trolling motor, and all, and his club fishes quite often and he posts ALOT of pics of some very nice fish they catch. Makes me wanna catch some from a yak. It really looks like fun. Congrats on your trip an the catch and thanks for the report.:)
