Who caught fish today? Good bad or blank, would like a report.Also, looks like the system blanked us a couple days.I think after Crappietime posted his picture the system crashed.lol. Anybody going to be on Tims Ford this week? I would love to catch an afternoon to dark this week fishing there.
Boat is in the shop so I didn't get to go. It would have been to windy for my boat anyway.
I didnt fish either but upper end of Tims looks like a milkshake.Will probably wait till Tuesday to go so the water can settle down a little.
Skeet and I braved the tornado's on Saturday and hit Woods at 2 pm until the storms hit. 25 mph winds and white caps! Oh well we just had to fish his spot right in the wind and we threw out the anchor. We did not get it back. Hung in the rock ledge and rope finally gave way after we tried to retrieve it, it had been ripped to shreds. We were bounced around like a pinball. Glad my boat can handle the rough water! We put 8 keepers in the boat in about 45 minutes and then they stopped. After the anchor fiasco we were pretty much screwed on this day for staying still. Went above the bridge into the muddy water and only added 3 more keepers there with several dinks. Most were caught about 3' deep with assasins. Just glad to be alive and off the lake before the bad storms hit. Sure was fun anyway! Got to go buy an anchor now. I would trty it shallow as the fish had plenty of color and we caught no females.
See Ya!
Before you go buy an expensive anchor, I would suggest you go by an automotive repair place and pick up you the biggest brake rotor they have that is bad. Man it makes a great anchor and if you lose it, you aint mad cause you just lost 25 dollar anchor.
Toby: How is the boat coming along
Hey C1bigocarp, I talked to Skeet Saturday night and he said you guys got thrown around pretty good. If your catching fish I don't think it matters that much. Sounds like it was an adventure......
Spent 4 hours or more on Tims today. No crappie, but then I don't know how to fish Tims.Quote:

Hey John what was the water temp.?
TT,I've been to Tims 3 times zero crappie.I wish we did not fish Tims as far as I'm concerned.Quote:

You guys are on here complaining about Tims are about like a pool shark in a pool hall saying that he cannot shoot pool! I know that you guys are just trying to sucker some of us poor guys in on side bets on our first tournament.:D At least you are fishing and having a great time. When you figure them out down there let me know.
The best way ive found to fish Tims is get in the truck and pull your boat over to Franklin Co dock and try your luck there.lol Joke
I just got home from a fact finding mission on Tims Ford. And the fact is I DIDNT CATCH A SINGLE CRAPPIE repeat I DIDNT CATCH A SINGLE CRAPPIE so much for the pool shark theory.I will be glad when the get lock built at Woods dam so we can lock through to woods and catch fish.LOL
Thanks for that great laugh bro.lol
Lol Trout.I aint ever figured out anything that was consistant on Tims except Ive had several non productive trips in a row there before.Somebodys gotta be planning on fishing there soon and any reports would be good.
Hey Toby, Ethan told me today it wasn't any need for anyone else to show up at tims. Said you two were going to win it all.:eek:Evertime we heard someone holler that was him catching a fish.:)
do yall still wanna fish this weekend?
Ethan can put in a coffee can all the fish he has caught on Tims and still drink coffee out of it for a month.Tims is a tuff place if you dont know the lake and we dont know it.Ethan can fish now, but he got more confidence than I do about that. I just hope to catch some that day.
Yes Trash. We have to. I aint sure if I can friday or just saturday, but We are going to come one the two for sure, or both.Will let you know as soon as I do.
