To say it was slow is an understatement. Ben and I (mostly Ben) cats some cats, a couple perch one bream one crappie.It was hot till the breeze picked up about 12
I took a couple pictures one of the group starting to get together and one of the line to launch.
I think we had 8 or 9 boats, a great turn out for very few fish.
Ok the picture of the group posted upside down so I deleted it and turned it upside down in the file and it posted it upside down. Help anyone
I'm certain the catch wasn't what you wanted, but the get together was certainly a good time none the less. Congrats on the catches, and thanks for the pics and post.
Sorry! I didn't make it guys. Got to the last minute and no one to go with. Lynnie's in-laws were here and were suppose to have left earlier in the day but decided to stay another night. I don't fish alone at night and did not want to impose on any of you. But sounds like it was a rough night. Where did you set up ScooperDude? I was hoping the cats were full from the other day with us feeding them.:Rofl
Team Scooperdude, team Spotrunning, and team sinkermaker all set up at the bridge on Allison.
The fish was definitely slow but the fun was gathering with like minded people and have a good time meeting new folks.
Hope Don had a safe trip hope as well as everyone else. I think we all had a great time.
Caught a few fish and had lots of laughs.
Thanks for everything yall. Sorry you missed it B.D.
We was all looking forward to rubbing your belly...nonono:Rofl
A good time is the main goal and when the bite is good it adds to the night. Good to see a good turn out.
I'm not sure what happens to the pictures at times as it seems these phones and posting pics can be a pain. I'll save it and see if I can get it to post right.

Made it home okay. I got in the bed at 3:15 and up at 9 for church. Thanks Neil for fishing with me. I had a good time just wished the fish would have bit a little more often. Enjoyed meeting new friends and looking forward till the next one. Don
The guy whose truck I made contact with last night called this morning, he was very nice about the whole deal. He got my insurance info, didn't seem upset by the damage to his truck and thanked me for leaving my contact info.
Aint much to say bout the bite. It was slow and slower. Dang cats are on a feeding frenzy for some reason.We caught 8 or 9 on my boat. They love to tangle up and mess up everything. Good to see everyone again. Glad everybody got home safe. It was a warm night for sure.Water temps in upper 80s to low 90s. Had quite a few pleasure boaters still cruising all night. My buddy Al , had never night fished for crappie. I think he likes it now. He caught the first crappie for us before I was all setup. The perch made a showing also. Total for my crew was 14 crappie but only 8 keepers. Was fun to jaw around with the SS Minnow crew close by.We will do it again soon. And maybe by Oct. the weather and the crowds will be down. Missed ya Dawgg. Sure hurts havin to give that money back I made for belly rubs. Thanks to everyone that made it.And lookin forward to the next one.
A run down on the weigh in:
total for 5:
Team Tiger at 4.lbs even. Congratulations to ya"ll.
Team ofishlbizzness at 3.14 lbs.
Team turkeyfoot at 3.6 lb.
TeamSS Minnow at 2.15
Team Spotrunnin at 2.12
Team Grady at 1.3.
The big fish crappie went to Team Spotrunnin with a 1.13 lb. fish.
Team Tiger was close behind with a 1.8 lb. fish.
Team Oldfish has a 1.6. lb
Team SS. Minnow was at 1.3 which was tied with Team Grady at 1.3 and Team Griff with a 1.3. Kept thinkin that fish looked familiar when he was weighed . Hmmm?
Biggest non crappie was a catfish (imagine that) from Team sinkermaker at 7.5 lb.Team Griff had a cat at 3.6. lb. And Team Tiger also a cat at 3.3 lb.
Not a great weight of fish but it was fun tryin. Everyone caught fish . Maybe not the slab s we wanted.
But I think everyone had fun.
Thanks again to everyone.
Be safe and fill the coolers !
Great time with everyone last night as always! Nice night to be on the water. Hopefully next time the fish will cooperate!
Here ya go! :)

Thanks, even turning upside down didn't work for me
That guy in the middle sure looks good dont he ! Good for nothing that is. Thanks Grady for the pics.
I forgot to mention the entertainment for the evening. We had a boat come in by the bridge and about 6 guys jumped in the water, next thing we know they are jumping from the bridge. Not some thingI would do but they sounded young and maybe a little drunk...I hope
They didn't seem to have trouble getting on the walkway I would think that would be blocked off
Boy you talk about getting old, this is the laugh for sat night. When Neil and I were setting up I looked for my stern light and could not find it. I knew that I had it in the boat but could not find it. So we chanced it with no light. Thank God the wardens stayed home. Went out this morning to unhook boat and fix a few things and I looked all around my shop no light. Finally looked in the boat and it was in the side compartment just where I put. Old age ain't kind. Don
I told you everyone would catch fish! Glad you guys had fun even without the belly rubbing. :Rofl I really do hate I didn't make it out.:deadhorse:Rofl
The bridge walkway is suppose to be blocked off. But over the years people have made a way around it or through it. It was blocked off because of what you said. Someone tried to jump from the top of the bridge and hit his head on the railing of the walkway and drowned. Screwed it up for a lot of fishermen who fished out there. Including me at the time. I used to tie a rope to a gas lantern and lower it to the water and fish all night in the winter time. It was warmer than sitting in the boat. :tongue
Sounds like yall had fun,Quote:

You will see us again, either here or there. I hope you get settled in easily. We may be checking in quicker than you think when you mention spots. I haven't caught any in a few years now. Let us know when they start running. I'll try to keep the guys inline but you know how ofishlbizzness, ScooperDude and Turkeyfoot are. :Rofl
We may even get OT to send you a picture of his big fish!:biggrin Good Luck on the move!
Good luck on your move and everything goes smooth for you and the wife.
Don, glad you made it home safe and hope you didn't doze off in Church.
Glad you found your light and glad the G-man wasn't on the water too.
Thank you for inviting me to fish with you and look forward to the next time we can get together for some Bsing and fishing.
Spot, best of luck to you and your wife. I have enjoyed getting to talk with yall and getting know a little about yall.
Let us know how things go with the move and of course when the spotrunnin...:highfive
Is that big fellow in the middle homeless?
Looks like he's begging for bait
