They got to eat! Good job Marv.
They bite year round, Just some guys think they stay in the same place. You have to find them but Dad proved that no matter the time of year a limit can be had!
Good job again! Same place as usual?
Another great report !! Especially for a 2 hour trip, the fish definitely don't leave the lake for summer - just might be harder to find or have to force them to bite.
Man looks like a Top Notch meal to me!! Any one fill me in on Lake Hancock boat raps bait stores ect.. Bought a new boat last year. Love to learn the fresh water lakes close to me. I live in Ellenton wich is manatee county. I have a Carolina Skiff (22') with 115hp and would love do do some crappie fishing> Just got back from Kentucky Lake and had a good trip. All advice is welcome Thanks
How was Ky Lake?

Good luck,

Yes Manatte lake 20hp or less. retired 3 yr ago and live here full time. So if you know anyone who can help with info send them my way thks. Crappie were staging when we were on kentucy lake but managed to cathch our share
If you are talking about lake Hancock between Lakeland and Bartow the ramp is dirt ramp at Winterlake Rd. and Saddle creek. Leave vehicle at your own risk. Parking area is very small. Lake is shallow with plenty of Gators and Nile Perch. Don't know about Speckled Perch.
Was hoping you would " chime" in my friend. :ThumbsUp Don't know of anyone in the area, that knows this neck of the woods like you do. :biggrinQuote:
