Finnly got a brake from work. I was going to try Kissimmee river, but the water wasn`t running. ( don`t do well this time of year if it`s not moveing). Went to Istapoga insted had to hunt around to find fish. found them on drop off in 5 to 6 fow. ended up catching 42 and keeped 19. Longlined to find them then spyder rigged. blk / chart, wht / chart, and chart were best tiped with minnows.
Thanks for the report.
Good report! The only time I was ever on Istapoga was about three months ago. I left from the landing at Lorida and never found any water deeper than 3 ft!*l*..and lots of muck....Were these taken more over toward the islands? I never got that far over .
Haven't been on Istokpoga in 6 yrs.
Usually put in at Public ramp on off Highland Lake dr
and 621 at south end of lake.
Work way up to Henderson Cove - work couple holes 6-8 fow, just out of
Henderson's Cove - in lake. need reeds .......
I put in at cow house road. fished strate out of the ramp between the islands. there is 6 to 8 fow that runs E and W. Shalow on both sides 3 to 4 fow. deepest part is on the west side. there is 10 fow on the SW side, but I haven`t fished it.
We ran two tournaments out of there in 2012 - 2013 - got very little interest,
dropped it 2014 haven't been back. Moved to Arbuckle for Crappie Trournaments
September 26th. - Very aware that Istopkoga has nice Crappie in it. Thanks for your
imput and thoughts
Wow, better get my story straight:
Said haven't been on Istokpoga in 6 yrs - well thats wrong - was on it
2012 & 2013 for tournament fishing. Did not go back in 2014....
My error - need to get my "fish tails" in order. (sorry) Time flyies when your
brain dead.
Hey fishin813, 3 yrs or 6 yrs all the same when you old like me. I'd rather remember something from 6 yrs ago and think it's 3 , than something from 3 yrs ago and think it's 6. Did that make sense, I'm not sure, I just made it up. lol:Rofl You poor guys, I'm coming to Talquin. I can't wait to bs with yall. haha
Its all just numbers. There is so many its easy to get em mixed up. Tis all good.

I am amazed at the things medical science can do these days. What will it be in another 10 or twenty years. They can do things now that a person don't think of till you need it.
813, I'm always behind the curve on what everyone is going through. Luck and steady hands for the "Plumber" doing the job. Hope all goes well.
Prayers your way Harold.....you'll be back on the circuit in no time!
