The rare reelfoot post..

As many boats that were on the lake, it's hard to believe nobody shares a little fishing report very often but here goes. I got out around 630 last Wednesday and waited in line to launch on the south end. Just bought a new to me tracker pro 16 that I'm using when I fish by myself. Have a tr20 Triton but it's so much easier to haul and launch my "little boat." I have really enjoyed this boat the few times I have been out in it. I'm fishing with LS mostly as I couldn't resist after my brother introduced me so have one on each boat.

Started fishing in about 15 fow and picked off a few here and there. Finally found where several were stacked in about 13 fow and it was on. Had to leave at noon to get back to home school with my wife and kids. Had 22 and a few throwbacks. Caught them on crappie magnet sho-nuff/chartreuse with a 16th oz head and of course tipped with a slab bite. Here are a few pics of them.

Took my dad's favorite jig pole with me and caught most on that rod. I truly miss fishing with him but he's not missing a thing here on this earth. Forever with his creator. My brother is now my fishing partner but we don't get to go as often.

Hope everyone had a great Easter with family as well as your church family.Attachment 425025Attachment 425022Attachment 425023Attachment 425024Attachment 425026

Those are some nice one. Thank you for sharing the report. Perhaps you will inspire others to as well. Nice looking little Tracker.

Looks to me like you've got a couple of great fishing partners now! Pass along the love of fishing!

Miss Reelfoot.....haven't been there since I moved to Middle Tennessee 31 years ago. Never seemed to be crowded then. Saw my biggest crappie ever there. I didn't catch it but an older fella had it in his cooler. It was a big cooler but the fish was still folded up on both sides laying flat. Little girl in the blue looks like she's got an attitude. Looks like she could outfish ya and dare ya to not like it! Ha!

spot on.. attitude at 100!

That's funny and she is adorable! Best fishing partners in the world. All mine are grown and gone. If you are in West Tennessee have you ever fished Cold Creek? I mean the old river oxbow, not the creek itself? I'm from west Tennessee and your post brings back memories. The river oxbows spoiled me. Monster Bluegills and slab crappies all day, all summer long. There is a slough between Open Lake and Chisolm Lake called Goose Pond. Drop a Mr. Twister beside a Cypress Tree and hold on! Throw a spinner bait anywhere and hold on! One thing I don't miss is the Skeeters!

Ive never really fished that far south. Im usually bouncing from reelfoot to kentucky lakes. i have spent a little time in the old obion river in the weakley/obion co areas. the skeeters are still here :biggrin

Nice report! Thanks for sharing.
