Thread: Three citations at Diascund

Good report Corker, and a nice catch. I'm wondering how you are catching those toothy fish. On the river I often have them hit but have rarely landed one. The fellows that fish for them (yes, there are a few) take about 6" of nylon line (rope) and double it over. they close the loop with a wire tie (flourescent color) and then shred the rest of the lure with a wire brush, making it look like a bucktail. No hook is used. They tie into the loop with a heavy line and then drift their home made lures with the tide in the summer. When the gar strike, their teeth become tangled in the shredded nylon, allowing them to be boated without ever encountering a hook. I'm not sure what they do with the fish, but I am told that some of the Chickahominies still eat them. Thanks again for the good report.

Congrats on the citations guys. I think that is the longest crappie I've ever seen

You have to look inside to find the crappie.

Great report, Corker. Thanks.

I had a fishing-intervention, and haven't gone for about 3 weeks. I am fixing to come up with a report this Friday, though. Good lord a willin', that is.

Great As always Corker!

Boy, it was Nasty here yesterday, When it stopped raining, we had "heavy mist" rain. ( I got soaked in short walk in "mist") Glad you all got out, Like ID said, I need to get out! Plan to hit BDR Thursday or Friday.
( minnows on porch,, need to look up winds and decide)

Yesterday was one of those memorable fishing days. Nice layed back day playing bumper boats between the three of us. Richard and Greg I really enjoyed the day . We'll have to gang bang LCR next.
