Lets hope the weather holds around the Rez for the event this week..Lots of plans have been made..

Small chance Friday and Saturday (30% - 40%) at the Rez looks like, lets hope it holds. Wind is more my factor these days, I will have to say I hope the big 4 gets a gully washer myself. I ain't fished the big 4 in almost 2 weeks, can't deal with low water and all the boats, handful of ramps. Been doing well off the grid though when I get the time, heck I'm wanting the 100 degree days to start myself, thin out the crowd a little..

Yep. Yep. Yep. Winds been horrible but about the norm. Folks fighting over a stump to fish. Ramps not even usable or at least safe. Wish Sardis was at least 4 feet higher. Don't see it happening this year.

Lets just hope for a wind NOT out of the Southwest for Barnett. Worst direction you could have here. Right up the gut of the lake

Nowhere to hide from a SW wind. DonDon, that big south wind Saturday made for an interesting ride back to Twin Harbours in my little boat.

Can't hide anywhere out of the wind at Sardis, regardless of wind direction.

That's where marina fishing comes in play.

We had one small shower at Graysport today. First rain all week. Fingers crossed for tomorrow.

If I wanted to be bored and not catch much of anything. Though I will say my son and I limited out two straight days fishing those petrified rocks one year. Others constantly passing us by coming and going. I kind of though it was funny. I'm sure there might be a moment catching them at the marina but not often.

I've caught baskets full of nice crappie in the marina. Depends on the time of year, but spring is usually pretty good.

My partner and I launched the boat with a long straight of docks on one side and a marina on the other before getting to open water. Most all the docks and the marina had signs "No Fishing". We flipped minnows under a float and caught a good many crappie along the way going and coming. We ended the 4 hour trip just shy of the limit for each of us. At the ramp we met a deputy. Tie your boat off and come with me, wouldn't let us trailer the boat. To court we go, fishing restricted waters. My partners was in state and had a $300 fine. I'm out of state with a $600 fine, cash. With deputy in tow we hit the local ATM machine, which allows $200 withdrawal per hour. Then home and check our accounts, both of our banks will cover 20% of the 39% the ATM machine charged.

Cane has the best stories. Pretty much the only reason I log in. :biggrin

canebreaker, I can find no law in MS that covers that... I think you were hoodwinked, by a local sheriff and judge...

I don't think he is talking about MS Clifford, cane likes to leave you pondering a bit, he left the clue that he had to pay more cause he was an out of stater.. :popcorn

I missed that part... Reckon he was over there messin with the Cajuns? I could see it happening there. Have a story about a made up hog law from my youth, and a big fine for shooting "someone's hog" out in the national forest...

We were at Pickwick on the TN side.
