Thanks for the Info.

I just wanted to say “Thank You” to those of you that sent me information on Lake Talquin. My Dad, who will be 80 this year, and I went down last week and had a great time. We stayed at Whippoorwill Lodge and the accommodations were excellent. We fished 7 mornings and 6 afternoons with a rest/lunch break during the middle of the day. The wind messed us up quite a bit but we still managed to get 115 really nice crappie. Crappie the size of the ones we caught there are basically non-existent where we live. Once again “Thanks”, to those of you that were kind enough to offer help. A special “Thank You” goes out to ‘TNT’ for all of your help. I really appreciated it!

We’re yall in a stick steer boat? The one in your profile picture?

Yes, we were in the boat in my profile pic. (1974 Ranger) but it isn’t a stick-steer.

Oh ok I seen y’all trolling. I was in the camo triton tiller handle fishing around the docks in the same slough.

TNT is dynamite. Great guy.

Great story, thanks for sharing. A pic with your dad and some of the catch would be nice if you have one.

Awesome picture. Thanks. This will be a home page article for sure.

I really enjoyed seeing him have such a good time!

That pic says it all . Memories you'll have forever

Glad you guys had a great time. I was at Ingrams this past wknd. I was in a Tracker and the only boat I saw pushing jigs. Most everybody seems to pull them. Im just a weird duck I guess. It was successful in catching fish though. TnT is a good guy. Hope to fish with him soon.

Very nice read... and quite the testimony to the awesome nature of the CDC forum and how brothers help brothers.
Thanks for sharing the report and your's and dad's awesome trip with the rest of us.

Sure appreciate you sharing this story. [emoji1303] I'm an old timer myself, hope someone will take me fishing when I can't launch my boat anymore.

Glad to hear that you and Dad had a trip to remember. Never having been there I was no help. The pic of your Dad tells all anyone could ever ask. Y’all come back now.

Very nice and wonderful memories. You Dad looks great. Tim(TNT) is a super guy. I have been twice to Talquin, but not much success. But I will go back, I really like the lake.
