Title: 2/9/18
Post by: slabslayer on February 09, 2018, 05:43:52 PM
Went back today for a brief outing and bite was really tough!!  We thought yesterday was bad!!  Tried spoons, tungsten, and small lead jigs.  Nothing really worked.  Tons of lookers but very few takers.  One nice bass and dink gills.  No Crappie.   Fishing in 11 feet with tons of nice marks that looked like Crappie but couldn’t coax them to bite.  My camera crapped out so I couldn’t drop down and look.  New one coming Monday.  Here’s only fish over 5” I got today!

Thanks!  Me too. Monday should arrive.  Hoping Tuesday to break it in!!!  I probably won’t be out till Monday.   Rain sucks without a shanty, I see chiropractor Monday morning to see if I can resume normal activity and if so shanty is back!!
