Tag Along

Ok guys, since May hit and all this, my spot is now dead. The water is only 4-5 ft deep. I have been taking off work to try to do some fishing and be at the lake at sunrise. I fish from 6AM-12PM and not one single bite. I've tried minnows, double minnow rigs, fake minnow swim baits, jigs, double jigs, crankbaits, mini rattle-traps, spinner baits, curly tails ... nothing works! I see people and they say the Crappie are deep now.

I am offering to pay someone to take me trolling in a boat. I've been asking for months now. I would like to talk with you first before meeting up. I do not have a GPS, so we need to discuss where to meet up.

I am in Central Alabama, Shelby County.

If it's no trouble, please let me know. Thank you and have a blessed day.

Brian

Lots of options.
1. Hire a guide
2. Fish a different area off the bank
3. Get a kayak...about the price of a guide, which can be used indefinitely.
You may have a tough time getting someone to let you tag along. Join a crappie club and get to know the members in person. I was once told, if you want a helping hand, check the end of your arm.

Yes we have a crappie club you can join. That meets in prattville. There is good discussion every month. Come out and meet new members and set up a date to fish with them. I'll give you another shot if youre in my area anytime. After the next three weeks. I'll be busy with crappie masters

If you were up North and had a kayak, I'd show you how to catch them in that four foot water all summer.

That stretch of $1.50/gal gas has spoiled us now! It's up to $2.00/gal and we are all like "why is gas so high" lol.

Well, lets see man ... gas where I live is now $2.10 a gallon. I drive 120 miles daily to and from work. I pay $636 monthly in Child Support and have to save my money mostly just for gas. I get my girls on the weekends, and guess what .... they live 2 hours from me, so yeah. My entire check mostly is just gas. So when I say PLAN, I'll need 2 weeks notice haha.
