I have fished Butla the last 2 days and could only muster,1 crappie, a drum, and a slimer.Suspended fish everywhere and could not get bit.Gotta go back to fishing during the week.Too much boat traffic.I saw a dumb Arse in a 25 ft. ski boat cut back into his own wake and almost rolled that boat over with 6 people in it in Musconi Cr.Why would you want to knee board in 4 ft. of water?:yikes
I put in at Hernando point Saturday..launching was no problem..taking out took over 30 minutes. Water fleas pulling down the ramp blocking it to unload. Dang jet skis everywhere...there is plenty of room for everyone to enjoy whatever they want to do. It would help if people were courteous to others, and used commons sense. Being retired is a plus in this case...I only fish on the weekend when I have to...
They are dumb, only go to the lake once or twice a year. Have no clue how shallow the water is. What has always terrified me is watching them pulling kids on tubes or ski's across spots that are shallow and bottom covered with stake beds 6 in under the water. Amazed no one gets hurt bad down there.
That lake is a tough one for me! My last trip there back earlier in summer got skunked on crappie! Caught 1 drum. It can humble a guy! Out of the big 4 its amazing how much more bait fish that lake has. Bait wads constantly on graph it seems.
I watched 1 ski boat blow by me and stop right before they got to the cypress trees in the back of Musconi cr.I don't know how they didn't run aground.The boat that almost swamped their own boat had Greenday playing so loud you could hear it across the lake!I'll be glad when it turns colder!
post a detailed map of the lake and all the stake beds as a public service. Don't want a kid to get hurt.
lol the only people that look at lake maps are fishermen. Not skiers. Sounds like u just want some easy stakebeds to fishQuote:

There is no sense in littering the lake bottom with sunken boats and jet skis. For my own safety, please provide these maps so that we all may return home to our loved one's!!Quote:

LOL!!!
Arkansas Crappie Mafia caught all the crappie earlier this year. Lake has to grow some more slabs.
That lake can humble the best of um. That's why the guides only fish it when she's on a tear.Quote:

Right on Gomer. That's a good Christian attitude. Need to do it before the water cools down.Quote:

There was a bunch of suspended fish in the northwest corner of the levee but I couldn't get bit. I think I should have pushed cranks might have been able to entice some big fish to bite!I had left all my cranks at home.nonono:yikes:banghead

Last PM's were 8/10/2016.OK every message has been deleted so go to sending them messages, I'm ready for em!:biggrin
From the info on the fj forum registration and weigh in is at Tadpoles in Hernando. 3pm weigh in, be a safe bet to catch a guber or two around there. Hernando point is the closest of course, but with the strong west winds predicted may not be the best choice. I've had the same results last couple of times Mr. Steve, found them stacked up, but couldn't pay for a bite. I swear sometimes my cranks were bumping them in the head, them Butla fish ain't going hungry that's for sure.Quote:
