Anyone been fishing midway or horseshoe lately. Thought about trying them this weekend. Trolling crankbaits on horseshoe should produce this time of year. Any info. would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

went to horseshoe with a buddy last weekend did well slow trolling. We fished 12 foot of water.Had a buddy go today talked to him about 9 he had 20 or so.
hey...we were headed to the 'shoe last friday when the boys at the red barn in west memphis told us about burnt cane lake south of widener exit. great day, fat crappie on minnows...water is about 12-14 feet deep all over, great cover. game and fish officer told us folks were catching a lot starting early in the day. we had a dozen or so from 11:00 to about 1:00...(slept late...)
crappie jig, were you trolling or jigging? how far is it from downtown memphis?
Ben,
Did you catch any fish over 12'' or just the standard horseshoe 10-12'' fish. Where were you trolling inside bank or outside near the middle of the lake by the big plantation house?
Thanks,
Ringo
Ringo,
We caught 4 or 5 that would go 14" . The rest were horseshoe fish. We fished straight out from Carefree where the lillies start going back towards the bank out in the middle of the lake . We fished 9 to 12 feet of water trolling nothing but minnows. Had a buddy go back tuesday said he did real good in the same depth of water.
Ben you have a PM
Ben,
Did you catch your limit the last time you went and did your buddy also catch his limit on tuesday. I am trying to decide between horseshoe, tunica, or sardis. Thanks,
Ringo
Ringo,
We had 2 limits by 10:00 on saturday. My buddy had 2 limits by 10:00 on tuesday. Had another guy go on wednesday had 40 and left at 11:00. I am headed to Sardis this afternoon. talked to a guy yesterday at sardis caught 12 trolling cranks. Havent heard anything about tunica but I cant wait.
2 limits by 10:00 is smokin the fish even if they are only 10''. That is a lot of fillets. We went last july and could only catch 6'' fish. Never could find the 10'' fish. We are headed to sardis on saturday. Let us know tonight if you do any good at sardis this evening.
Thanks,
Ringo
Ben,
You have a pm.
Ringo
Ben may not know how to operate a pm.
just got it
I wish Ouachita would heat up like some of these smaller lakes! I find myself yearnin' for the springtime! lol
Got skunked Friday night...but the lake was beautiful, as (nearly) always.

Anyone been catching any at horseshoe this past week or weekend or know of anyone catching any. Slow trolling minnows or trolling cranks should be fairly productive this time of year. Any info is appreciated.
