Strange Lookin' Crappie

[Granny]

I decided to take advantage of the nice weather yesterday and head for Tuckertown for some Crappie fishin'. My son went with me this time. We got there around 8:30 am, and were real surprised to find only a few others out on such a nice morning. We only caught two small Crappies (9") all day, but during that time this critter sneaked in on me. After speaking with a few other fishermen it seemed the general opinion was that the Crappies had simply not started feeding yet. We stayed until after 2 pm before giving it up. There were many others who were going to wait it out, and others were still coming in. Don't know what we missed out on, if anything, but had a nice day regardless.



Largemouth Bass (18"+ / weight unknown, no scale)
put him back and told him to go forth and multiply

Dang Don, that fish has scales all over it. How could you not know the weight?

 

[Granny]

Dylan, I gave you more credit than to ask a dumb question like that. The scales were Chinese and I can't read 'em!

Same thing with me Don, father and I have hit Norman last three weekends. Caught some really larg crappie but not much qaunity, been cathing the hell out of spotted bass and largemouth by accident though. water temp was 54 last sunday, should be just right.

Can we take up a collection, & get Don a Razor?

Water temp was 49 on Tuckertown. One fellow I talked to said they were hitting later each day as the water temp declined. I really don't know one way or the other. Anyway, it was a good day spent on the lake with my son.

You will have to take that up with Darlene. I asked her in October if I should let it grow this year and I got a very clear YES! Seeing as how I am now considered an old fart I have gained the wisdom to respect answers to questions of that nature.
