Friday Rebranger and myself went to Butla and did a very intense electronic side scan search of the whole lake til dark. We found fish...there are crappie in Butla.
So I must say that I maid a mistake by posting earlier that Butla was a dead sea, it is not dead...:fish
Just drum and slimers..... move along.

If they were crappie they are tight lipped. The gar, drum and slimers that people throw back instead of carrying home for their gardens or chickens.
Yea it's gonna take some years for Butla to recover, IF it can ? The Core got what they wanted, a flood control lake. It's a lot of effort and money making a trip to it for the empty cooler you bring home. Rebranger and myself were gonna fish the crappie.com tournament there, but after that scouting trip we decided to back out, but good luck to the rest of yall ......:fish
Somebody will win it
Lol yea and it won't take much to win, maybe less than a limit...What would happen if nobody caught a fish ??? Rees would keep the money and put it with the next tournament?Quote:

Catch 7 fish in a FJ tourney at Butla and you'll feel like you won no matter what.
You're Welcome. [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]Quote:

Your probably right Bill, I just can't help my self as Ree's said one time...lol. Are you gonna fish it? I think the boat with the most weight will win it ...:ThumbsUpQuote:

I hear ya, it's a lifelong struggle for some of us. I haven't fished a tournament in years. These things always conflict with a ballgame or work.Quote:

Easy victory if they add our weight together. [emoji23]Quote:

We will be there. Butla is not a numbers lake and it's not for those who are proud. It's most times a humbling experience but what she will do is...she will teach you to fish. i love fishing, see ya there
Be careful Carl. Todd and I might just decide to come down if it a total wieght in the boat thing:RoflQuote:
