Thread: Another day off

I was able to get this Friday off, Called in to work last Friday. Had to drop wife off at work 1st then off to Claytor lake got to launch in good time, went to raise motor to take motor toter off, battery dead????? Had been on charge all night????? I called Conrad's Marina they said they would jump me off, had to pay $5 to launch but got to use big motor. They got me started and let me borrow a battery in case it wouldn't start later. I have been trying to figure out the crappie on this lake all year, this is my first year spider rigging and have had limited success. The only way I have been able to catch crappie spider rigging on Claytor is over brush piles. I arrived at the 1st brush pile to find someone on it, no big deal community hole, so I went to an area I hadn't tried yet, I caught many Ky bass and a couple YP, trolled back toward the brush pile when I found another brush pile I had never fished, I caught 2 - 14.5" crappie, several more smaller crappie and many YP, started trolling back to brush pile found another brush pile, 3 more crappie and many more crappie. I was rigging with minnows on all 6 rods, brush piles were 12-16 FOW, I will be adding some more brush piles to this lake. I haven't been able to catch any crappie any other way on this lake lately.
I read the post about naming lakes, Claytor is so small that its' hard to keep anything a secret.
Thanks Aaron

I don't think so, I left the light switch on all week no lights plugged in and charged the batteries over night before I left. I think the battery was dead and did not get charged enough?? I have charged the battery fully and will check better before I go this week??
