Poverty point weekend

The annual Watt family fall getaway was slightly later than normal this year but I can't complain cause we were blessed with some beautiful weather and very little wind too boot. We laughed, ran, jumped, played and caught a few fish in between all of that.

Ended up with 32 crappie and 6 cats in two trips out. Also caught a boat load of goo and yellow bass.

Yes, brand new bottle at that. Can't catch fish and dip baits at the same time... 👎

I bet you smelled like olive garden got to touch on the sleeve too

Saying it was stout might be an under statement. Got it on pants, shoes and boat deck too.

Nice catch 20watt. What size shoe does that boy wear?:biggrin

Dapet I thought all crappie fisherman had been introduced to the wonderful product called spike-it.

It's a liquid used to dye soft plastics by dipping it into the bottle to add a little color and garlic scent to the tail of your bait. They have a couple different colors but I mainly use chartreuse.

Theygottaeat is right about it not washing off. I'm sitting here at work and look down at my pants legs and I've still got a huge stain on my leg..

Ok lets get that fish entered:popcorn

Looks like a great time Jimmy. You really are blessed in so many ways. Lovely family. The dye will fade on its own, I have spilled plenty of it. I hate when I spill it, because it makes me hungry for Italian food all day. :Rofl:santa
