Still Fishing ?

Have most people put up the fishing gear for the year? It sure seems that way. But not me, hey the Crappie should be biting very soon. :thumb:

I've always wanted to try fall crappie, but never have. You got any tips?

Yea, go with my cousin.:lol: J/K I'm a Bass Fisherman if anything, so I go with my cousin who could catch fish anytime, anywhere. But usually we use live minnows suspended about 10~12 ft. Good luck 5, give it a shot. :thumb:

Sounds just like hitting the crappie in the summer.

They also like the pop-eye and the roadrunner. :thumb:

When the water cools down in the fall. The fishing is great at this time of year.

Head down to Kentucky Lake and get yourself some minnows under slip floats - Tear em' up!

Crappie fishing best in spring and late fall~

I might go try to get a livewell full of crappie here soon.

Went and fooled around on the river bank a couple of days ago. Those cats were nailing on the river!

Trout were tearing it up at Grayson Lake tailwaters today. I caught five of theses on a fly rod. The rest on minnows. I caught 14 all together. Plus a couple of crappie also.

:ylsuper: That is quite a day GF. What did you catch the crappie on?

I caught the crappies on minnows. But the trout were hitting the minnows and they were rising to the top so the old fly rod came out. I originally went out for crappie but the trout ruled out. I used to really get some good crappie there but a few years ago the water got really high there and changed something. I've not done real good there since. One time I caught over 40 crappie in about 2 hours time.

Great pic TGF, A very good friend of mine has been doing very well on trout at Greenbo, mainly using the Berkley Power Bait (eggs) and corn. As for artificials, a "Joes Fly" in line spinner and very small "Rooster Tails" do very well along with the small casting spoons.

At my farm pond the catfish are still biting. I caught four, each weighing two to three pounds just the other day.
