I spent about an hour tonight fishing under the dock light. Caught 12 crappie and 1 perch. I believe the cooler weather has brought bigger ones in. Only 2 babies in the bunch.

Dang Chris. Aint your dock above the campground? Who woulda thunk there's enough oxygen that far up river right now. Good report. thanks for posting.;)
Love those lit docks
Beautiful picture! I use to have a lady that kept her light on at night on the side of her boat house and it was truly a magnet for all species of fish I would set back off in a distance and cast under the light and reel real slow with a split shot and a minnow and nail the crap out of crappies. Now she's long gone and no light from new owners. They get pissed because of our lights that even submerged they say bother them. i think it's the fact someone is out there and I can't stand it factor takes over! :Doh:
Chris, you got it made if you can keep them in there. :highfive
Those docks with the lights on sure produce the fish.
Maybe the whitewater coming down Anthony Shoals about 1/2 mile above the house provides some aeration and that allows some fish to remain in the river during the summer? I've been catching them under the dock light all summer, they've just been mostly babies until this week.Quote:

I’ve got a family coming this weekend so I’ll have them out Saturday and Sunday mornings. I’ll give a report and let y’all know if they’re still biting.

We didn’t go Saturday but did this morning. The stripers have definitely moved. We finally found a few and ended up with 6 for the morning.

Good you were able to find some, were they big or just average?Quote:
