I went out to lawrence landing tonight about 30 minutes before dark and here is the biggest one I caught. They got lockjaw at dark. There were 3 younger guys out there with one fish on the stringer and I caught 5 to add to their one plus a yellow and some smalls. (Forgot my bucket argh) Notice the severely chapped upper lips and the wind burn. Gotta love crappie fishing!

Nice fish Coats80, thanks for sharing the pic with us. Keep them coming.

Well I missed two last night must have been too small for the hook haha. You know Leon always misses about 50. Its those tiny ultra lite rods he uses.
Nice way to end a day. Thanks for posting the pics.
Hope to have you join us on the Little Maumelle. Bring some of that luck with ya when you come.

I just wish my wife would let me bring the camera more often. She thinks im going to drop it in the water or something. Its snowing right now and Im really considering going back out there until dark. Gooch if you invite me on the boat i'll be more than happy to bring my bad luck anywhere :)
Hey Coats, we got 2.5 inches in Rogers, AR already...NICE! Wear the camera on a neckband (or at least tell her you will =)Quote:

There are a number of guys that are making plans to come that dont have boats so go ahead and get your kitchen pass early so you can come and meet everyone. I am going to cook some burgers and shoot the bull then let everyone go pick there spots that we plan to already have marked with a bouy. It may not be the best fishing trip of your life but I know you will have a good time and meet some of the finest folks fishing has to offer (myself excluded).Quote:

Time to make some homemade buiscuts and gravy and get warm.
Aww, Coats...I wish that I'd known you were gonna be fishin' today. I decided this morning to head out to the cove. Got poles in the water around 12:30 and got off the water around 4:45. I kept 15 crappie and 3 monster yellow bass. I haven't weighed the biggest crappie, but I have a couple close to 2lb or better. I threw back several yellow bass and who knows how many dang drum. Also snagged a few shad (absolutely huge shad) that were about 10" long. It was a pretty good day. Slow but steady. I was the only boat out there, and that's why I love days such as today. It really snowed good for about 20 minutes and would have made for a great picture. I also had to bust ice to get out there. I think that's the first time I've ever had to crack ice to get to a spot...
I hate it that you were out there and I didn't know about it. I know we've discussed it before, but you're welcome anytime in my boat. My camera ran out of juice before I could get the first pic off, but I'll post a detailed report and an after pic tomorrow.
