Thread: A first timer's nitestalk

Met up with BiggDawagg at Ebenezer ramp Sat. p.m. for a little nite action. He had a young fisherman with him that had never been on a nitestalk. After a little jawing about the best football team in S.C. (Clemson ) we took off to break him in. I had my work buddy aboard my boat. Ron and his cousin Steve and Justin were in Ron's boat. I got the jump on him and found his honey hole first. But they was plenty of room for all. I anchored in 28 fow. Temp was 65 and water slight stain.Tightline minnows from bottom up to 5 foot. Most crappie caught between 5 and 12 fot for us. Rods out and was not long till they started to bend. Dang perch. We caught a couple dozen of them critters before Stevie had our first crappie. A nice on to start with.13 IN. on my tape. Stayed slow for a while till bout midnight. Stayed slow for a while till bout midnight. They turned on for the next hour for us. We ended the night with 33 on the clicker and 23 keepers. Biggest was 1 3/4 lb. Back at the ramp we got to lookin at Ron's fish. The new guy Justin had showed them boy's how to git er done ! He had one around 1 3/4 or better ansd several close to the lb. mark. All said and done it was a decent trip.Not sure how many the other boat had. Will let them fill in the info on that.Had a great time out with some good CDC buddys and a couple new folks. Congratulations to Justin for teaching those guys how to fish. We will do it again soon so come on back.
