Went today from 11 to 5 and had a pretty good day. Started out on the crappie and caught about 20 on yellow and red jigs. Had one that was 16 inches. Biggest crappie I have caught in a while. Caught them all shallow in 3 to 6 feet in the WT/ Savannah area. At about 2 started fishing for bass. Right off ran into BassBullet and we campared notes. The bass just were not hitting in the Wolf so I went out into the main lake. As I was coming up to the area I have been catching schoolers I saw them breaking.emoSmile Started chunking the puppy and they nailed it. Over the next couple of hours I boated about 20 bass and had several more blow up and some come off. They were hitting it so fast they missed it a lot. None were really all that big but I had a couple that would have measured. Overall a very nice day to be on the water.emoThumbsup Jmax
 
Well after talking to Jmax I headed back into wolftever and caught a couple of shorts along a grass line. Played with my new Lowrance 332 for a while then headed out to the main lake to see if my schoolers were going to show up. The wind was out of the South maybe Southeast not good for my schoolers. I only caught about 4 or 5 and finally gave up on them fish around the islands and caught a few more only had 1 keeper. I caught the schoolers on a pointer 78 and rest came on a senko all LM and all in less than 6 foot of water.

What a beautiful day it was yesterday and a good crappie fishing day too. Way to go, Jmax. It has been a looooong time since I caught a 16" crappie. Nice!emoGeezer
 
I know what you mean DK, same here. I thought it was a bass. Ended up being the biggest fish I caught yesterday.emoRolleyes I do not know why that one was there. Most of the ones I was catching were pretty small. Fun to catch anyways. You and I need to hook up sometimes and compare ways to fish. We can't be all that far apart based on what you keep posting.emoSmile Jmax
 
Hey BassBullet . how did you like the new Lowrance??? Is that one of your tx prizes??? Sounds like it was an okay day on the lake. Somedays I like those that give you time to think about stuff while you are waiting on a bite. :)

Glad you got out there and thanks for the report!

Good fishing there Jmax.

Sweet bottom machine BassBullet. I almost went for that one but got a better deal on a Humminbird.
