New Member intro'

Hey folks. Just a few words to start. Just got registered this morning. Prodded by "bobberwatcher". I think the real reason was for him to learn Millwood. I keep telling him it is a crappie fishermans heaven. I grew up on the lake (fished it over 45 years now) and yes that means I was 5 when I started with my granddad. It was just a river then. I don't guess there is anyone knows it better than me but lots know it as well. I have a get-a-way down at Yarborough Landing that will be the retirement place in about 8 years. Every weekend I can get away from LR, I go down just to relax. If any of ya'll start to head down, give me a shout first and I will fill you with better lies than someone else can.

Bobberwatcher gave me an invite for the Conway 3/29 outing. It is on the calander and I hope to meet lots of new folks and make a lot of new friends.

God Bless and have a great day.

Here is a warm welcome from
INDIANA

Hello and welcome MLR...look forward to your posts and maybe meeting you on the 29th.

Welcome to the board. We dont care what Alan did to get you to sign on just as long as you did. I cant wait to get some regular reports from Millwood. Its a lake I have never fished but have been interested in.

Sure do hope you can make the gathering on the 29th and crappie camp.

Millwood is also like a second home to me. My vehicle automatically heads in that direction. The fishing on that lake is definitely fantastic. We usually put in at Wilton during prespawn and Bullfrog during the rest of the year. If my wife didn't have a bowling tournament, we would be down there tomorrow, but I guess I have to wait until Saturday. We fished Gurdon pond last night and caught six in 2 hours. All from 9 to 12". South end was 49 the north end was 58 degrees. Drop me a line!!!

Hey Spikles2, I am normally down every weekend. In fact, I am going down this coming weekend. I got several condo's to build, work on my Evinrude, and set some trotlines. My place is over on the Yarborough side, right acros from the fire dept. building. Hope we can meet up some time.

BTW - wanted to let you guys know that I am an old but still sharp outboard mechanic. I owned a boat dealership down on the lake for about 15 years. I got factory certified in just about everything. When I got out of it, I sold all but my knowledge. I work on them still from my house, so if any of you need a good mechanic (that means it is right when you get it back or you get a refund), I don't charge near what the dealerships are getting because of no overhead. I can't order parts directly anymore but so far, getting them from the other dealers still works. Or, I can tell you what you need, you get the parts and I'll install for you. Not advertising at all here, just letting you know I'm here to help and save some $$$ if you need it. My cell # is 501-529-1420 if you need to reach me. I work on all brands.

Now for a report - I got a call from a local Millwood buddy that caught his limit of 15-17 inch slabs in 3 feet of water yesterday in the rain. All on minners under cypress trees. They are really starting to make their beds and eating everything they can before bedding down. I will check it out first hand Saturday. Will let you guys know the outcome.
