Thread: Pickett: visibility and fish size were the same...

The guy at the game check station told a friend of mine they had "found" some extra money and spent it on the new ramp. What areas did you fish?

Beats sitting in front of the tv.

Should have tried a jig

All of my usual places:

I did. This is one of the only places that jigs work well for me. This particular color combo usually works great--but not yesterday.

Thanks, like the map pic!

Thanks for the report, Corker. Nice pics, as usual.

Thanks for reports Richard, Glad to "hear" boat is back to getting on the water. Big crappie will come, I am sure of that!

dand richard as much as you like crappie i suprized you don't fish the chick river. i'm sure if you fish all day you will find them when they turn on. plus the size is good.

Jim- It's almost time for the YP to show up at Walker's, and CR's on my list of places to go, but it's not a favorite destination. The ramp's a PITA, the crappie have worms, and (unless I missed some good reports) last winter CR didn't give up many citations. Pickett's a good facility, is never crowded, and there's a chance of catching a monster. Several winters ago, I hung (and lost) a huge fish on two trips. Redy2Fish had similar experiences. In May 2010 a local angler landed one of those fish and it weighed almost 4 lbs. If any of that class of fish are still in that lake, I don't mind handling a lot of dinks while I'm looking for one!
