I am just glad to see it getting back to normal...of course we still have the spring rains coming.
Is there anything wrong with tipping a jig? No no no
Kinda like a beer with a lemon wedge nothing wrong with it lol
If you need some lemon, go buy you a pint of lemonade :cheers2Quote:

What is a "nimrod special" setup? I need all the help I can get! Lol
Are there any places to stay "cabins, hotels". Around lake nimrod? Me and the wife want to take a weekend trip around the end of march and have never been to that lake before
Is the nimrod special jig an minnow?
As many times that i have fished with Nimrod, i have never ever seen any kind of bait dead or live, i call him the no bait fisherman and have caught hundreds of them crappie.Attachment 229323I can show you the bait but i can't tell you:Rofl
Anderson Bait Shop at Carter Cove at Nimrod Lake has 2 cabins. PH 479-272-4025
Purple and chartreuse 2" Southern Pro umbrella tube with a 1/8 oz. jig (insert) and a small swivel 24 to 30 inches above the jig. Nothing else, especially no minner!Quote:

With no minners in the boat, you have less chance of ruining a jig by accidently getting minner scent on it. Besides, when operating a Nimrod special properly, you'll be too busy catching to tip with a minnow, or nibble. Most times you will be too busy slanging fish in the boat to pick up the net (if you know what I mean).:biggrin
:hesaid Ski Trip and RCC
Nimrod stopped by my place yesterday and gave me some one on one instruction.
Very helpful. Thanks CA
That is CA. He will help a guy catch a fish if they will listen.
Nimrod has also shared his knowledge with me and I will tell you the "Nimrid Special" works on Beaver lake too. But, on lake Nimrod, it's lights out. He is the king mentor in my book!
You making a trip down again this spring ?Quote:

I send that Gewber those by the 100's. I know (like everyone else) which one he likes. That purple and chart. Southern Pro looks good. [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]Quote:

Hoepfully not not a lot of runoff and the lake will start to clear up.
River at Gravely rose to 6' so we will get a rise in Nimrod . Not sure how much rain we got .Quote:
