    Charlie, When you said you picked them up on your SI the light bulb came on. Are you marking any large schools of bait? I think you know what I have in mind. Are you game?

(under accessories, set screen snapshot to on) Recording would be video that you would play on your pc using Humviewer or you can watch on your unit. The disadvantages of watching the video on your unit is the smaller screen and you can only increase the play speed slightly. Using Humviewer you can increase your play speed a lot and the bigger display of you computer makes it easier to see things.
    BINGO! Thanks Tap !

    Pete , I did see smaller bait balls. The fish here are on run all the time ( spooked by fishermen?) , I think there is so much bait that the fish can swim miles eating the whole time! You need to fish it once to see it, its hard to explain. But I have seen stripers every time on off all day long- the last 3-4 times I was up there!
    They do have alot of pontoon boats slow trolling bait. ( its kinda a mad house, but not as bad a bay fishing) I could tell you were they are easy-- Its the same place I used to catch them 25yrs ago! ( but would be glad to ride along)

    If the brush is sitting in 25 FOW and it sticks up 5', that puts the top of it 20' below the surface. If I'm dropping the minnows 13' to 15' and the water's not mud, the fish should find my minnows.

    Corkser, I'm pretty sure the first the first time I fished with you we were fishing in 25' of water and I went home with cooler full of 12-13" crappie, showed them off to anyone that would look .

    Does Anna still look like a chocolate milk? I know after the rain it came up about a foot and was dark.

    I sure hope it clears some in the next week. I'm looking forward to getting down there between Christmas and New Years.

    Water should be good to go in a few days, I heard they had a real heavy rain like 4" in couple hrs! ( We didn't get much in richmond, in fact I played with motors much of the day it rained. (both TM and outboard motor) One guy at Lake Anna, I was talking with-- told me he has fished the lake when Ice was on edges of banks and he floated corks along the ice edge-- He stated crappie use ice edge like weed edge- darting out to get minnows and back under ice for cover! He even pointed out cove to me!
    You crappie fishing bettween Christmas and NewYear? (stripers? or both)
