Seems there is less places to bank fish. Also they started to charge a small fee to get into Wallermill park. I would fish off of the fishing dock there also. I am not going to pay even a few dollars to fish for 10 minutes to find there are no fish in the small bank fishing area.I understand not posting the exact spot to fish. I am a flyfishing guide and see the same situation in my area. Thanks for all the help I have been given and look forward to so fishing in the future.
I would like to thank Roy for not blaming me putting a contest on here. LOL In fact I am going to start a BG contest on this forum soon. I think you will like the new format. More laid back and everyone posts to one place. I'm learning , Roy , and I miss you guys posts also. "D"
I can't wait for Whitehurst to re-open! That can be one great lake for a variety of fish. Looking forward to getting back there next year. I generally make a post when I have been crappie fishing, but not always. Also, I have a tendency to read the board without logging in, thus I don't make many comments. However, the weather is getting cold so I know I'll be hitting the water more for crappie/yellow perch in the near future. Look out Suffolk!Quote:

Sorry to hear that, Jack.Quote:

I read the forums a lot, but never post cause I'm a amateur crappie fisherman. I typically throw crappie jigs to trees and wood in the water, no real method to my madness other then that. When I get them, I get a lot, but it's not the norm. I do know that about this time, I'll light up the crappie on my home lake in Suffolk. Typically now - late december I'll get 50 - 80 crappie a trip, but average size is 7 - 12 inches, no monsters
I can't see a difference, most people wait till winter to light it up.:cheers2
I am a fall winter fisherman. Only the saltwater has been so productive I have not even gone freashwater fishing this fall. I also think many folks had so little work that they used to fish more, now there is so much work that there is no time to fish. I may go soon as I am hearing the NWR is so hot they are jumping into the boat!
Don't seem to be much interest in my fishing hole, Buggs Island, as when I first joined. The Bashes here used to draw a crowd. We still catching thousands of crappie each season, still throwing most of'em back...still putting in 30-40 new brush piles each yr.
I'm heading out to bob's fishing hole tomorrow for the first time. I haven't been fishing in a few weeks due to the high winds.
This is a wonderful site. Great people running it. Great people posting in it. I encourage all of you to post your pics, give a (little) info, host a bash in your neck of the woods. It's easy.
Still my number 1 favorite web site! Spend more time reading on Main Forum and Electronics Forum than here on the VA board. Lots of great info available. Don't post many fishing reports but I agree with Doc on the Buggs reports. Plenty of quality fish available and willing to bite if you can handle the weather. Thanks to Doc and many others there is now more brush than you can fish and most of the ones that top out at 10 to 15 feet have fish on them from one end of the lake to the other. Tight lines to all.
I have only crappie fished for two years now, and have learned much on the main forum. Will have to remember to post reports on this forum.
Thanks for the memory's Dayton.CF
Great stuff, Dayton. Plain to see what this forum is all about.
looks like a bunch of yellow bass being posted. what are those things?Quote:

That pic from Jeff's kitchen reminded me of one of the funniest things I ever heard when Bennett meets Brad and says " I thought you were black."
I miss them Boys. Could not ask for two finer people.CFQuote:
