ITS JANUARY N FLORIDA

Somebody tell the fish---Everybody fishing the reeds like its spring and spawn---Rather break my other knee than fish the reeds---jUST SAYIN! Sooo i stayed out with my spider rig setup in 7 foot and managed a few that escaped the mad hatters in the reeds with All my poles intact when i headed for the house!
Said hello to a fellow CC member Slipbobber, who by the way was one of those mad hatters. lol

Never the less it was a great morning--weather temp---sun ----who can beat it.

Back tomprrow to watch the mad hatters! :scratchhead

Good to hear the Girl's catchin' some.

But I have to say, ain't nothing wrong one poling reeds or pads when they're biting. If fact it's one of the most fun ways to catch crappie. Feel the thump.

I need to try and fish the banks...

Hard to beat single poling but with that being said, add in a little wind and it can sure be tuff every time a reed hits my pole I have a hard time restraining my self from setting the hook hahaha

How about some pics Linda. Let us see those slabs your catching.

Dang! Somebody is a touch cranky, they left all the open water fish just for you.

was fishing in the reeds/pads last february in canals in Harris chain and had a ball. just use the long pole and don't need to go down far and don't get hung up much and caught quite a few while my two compadres tried the edges of canal and together didn't catch as many as I did. Learn to LOVE the Reeds, got to fish where the fish are! You go Crappiegirl!

Girl power!!!!!!!!!

Talked to a "madhatter" at the ramp, the other day, he had 20 - I had 5. Hum🤔

Linda, hopefully this cold snap will put em back where they belong.

Temp. 43 degrees 16 mile per hour winds on Lake Harris at 6:15PM Saturday.

Tad bit nippy:witching

Was shocked to see the water temp in Lake Harris at 62.5 degrees this morning, wont take long to get right with the full moon Thursday, will be time to catch some.--probably in the grass.
