Slo-o-o-ow today at M. Point

Very slow day for my brother and myself at M. Point. We threw roadrunners, jigged in the shallow around trees, and even trolled tightline with multijig rigs. We caught a few small crappie and had 2 keepers at 2:30 pm, was just getting ready to go and caught a good one, 1lb. 15oz. We fished about 30 more minutes, with no luck so we release the 3 we had and left. Will try again tomorrow, with my grandson. Hope the bite is better tomorrow. May have to try some minnows and crickets to get him on some action.

The only good one.

Hope everyone had a better day on the water.

LA the wife and I fished on a lake near the house (Bonham). She caught 2 big keepers and I caught .... 1:( . Good luck tomorrow. I'm taking my 5 year old grandson out in the boat Sunday for the first time. Pray for me.:eek:

Nimrod is extremly slooow for mid April.:confused: :rolleyes: :(

Jerry,
I found Morgan point on the google map. It looks like there is a ramp on the north end. I also found that ramp on my arkansas outdoor map. Is the ramp called buzzard beach ramp? It looks like there is a ramp on the south end of the lake also. I am definately going to have to try it down there. I'll let you know when I'm coming.

Yeah Randy the ramp on the north end at buzzard beach is where you put in. The other ramp is now private. I hope the fish are more cooperative today, since I'm taking my grandson.

Hope you have a good day on the water. Looks like it's going to be a real pretty day. Hit that lake last fall, has some good fish in it.

Hey L.A. .....The fishing was off yesterday for me too....I caught a bunch of small ones but only managed 5 good keepers.....4 of the bigger ones came on roadrunners. Couldn't get a bite in the shallows...all fish caught were in 25' of water 8'-12' deep around brush piles but not right over them.

It's still slow at Nimrod for good fish. The small ones are stacked up on the banks.:confused:

I just thought yesterday was slow. Didn't even catch a keeper today. Even tried bream with crickets and only caught a few and they weren't keepers. Really wanted to get my grandson into some good fishing, will have to try later when they get back to feeding. Going to Chicot tomorrow with a friend from work. Hopefully it'll be better there.

Good luck LA , hope the fishing gets better. I been thinking that it will all week here.:confused:

Jerry, I think you burned up your great days awhile back, should have saved one or two of them....lol......sorry you couldn't get your grandson on some fish, them little ones really enjoy that..... We didn't do so well either, went to toledo saturday and didn't boat a single fish. Good luck today on your trip.

Well today wasn't any better, went back to M. Point today because it was going to be windy out of the south. At least on MP we could get out of the wind. We only had 3 keeper crappie and a bass. Hopefully thing will pickup by next weekend.

Well Jerry, that's not the kind of news that I'm wanting to hear...Hope it picks up at MP. I'll probably be giving CC a try sometime soon. So....what's the good word about CC these days???:rolleyes:

JohnR went over last week and didn't get a bit on rosey's. Said the grass was something fierce as well.

After reading about this on one of the other boards, I wonder if you took a rake and cleaned the grass out of a couple of holes. Then went back later to fish them.

Thick grass all the way to the surface would be a nightmare for slo-trollin'.

I confirmed with JohnR. Dang grass has taken over the place. Said it looks alot like coontail moss.

Moss and weeds were pretty thick going back left from the boat ramp at CC. Also, the water is very clear. I gave up and tried the other end of the lake, but no luck. :(

Atleast you are out there fishin, and not stuck @ work. and you did catch that one good one! it will get better.
