Title: CJ 2/13/11
Post by: old reeler on February 14, 2011, 03:03:15 PM
Son-in-law & I hit the hump area early- drilled holes & sat up the 2 man- were into the fish from get go- all gills & crappie- action was good for 2-21/2 hrs and then slowed dramatically- nursed a few more & called it quits at 11:30. Best lures were Rat Finkees glow head w/pink tipped with spikes or waxies. Cleaned 26 nice gills & 14 crappies (9-12"). 11 of the crappie were female with eggs- looks like the open water season will be a good one & a big thanks to the Friends of CJ for all their work- hope to join you on a weekend if possible. Tight lines to all, Old Reeler

Sir, thank you, actually will credit the new 9" limit, the very abundant shad numbers and yes the cover will help, hopefully. And sometime in the near future we will need the help assembling 300 more...with 1,000+ attracters in CJ, believe it will help the overall fish populations...
