Went last week with no luck nor even a nibble, but the warmer weather is here to stay it seems, they must be ready to come up into the shallows and get warm. |

Went out for our annual family Good Friday fishing tournament. My son and I ended up with 18 crappie >10" (most between 11" and 12 1/2")and he had one 14 3/4 (just 1/4" short of his "Master Angler).
We had a total of eight boats and 22 guys out. Son and I finished second to my dad, his best friend, and my brother who ended up with 17 keepers (10 crappie and 7 white bass). The rules seem to change from year to year but as long as we all get together, I'm OK with us not getting the trophy. |

Missouri River fishing has been slow for me so far. Haven't caught any eater size catfish yet. Have caught two carp that went around 7 pounds, a couple of small sturgeon and some baby channel cat. No blue's or flatheads

She's at the top of the size range in my pond but certainly not the biggest. Its an ass kicker to catch these fish from the kayak on surface baits in late may post spawn.

Catch a bullshark from the beach?... man, what a high, I could literally get high on that. I've had my eye on Pensacola as a place to live for a little over a year now, could easily see myself there very soon... I WANT that weather, I WANT those fishing and outdoors opportunites and I WANT that "just big enough, but just small enough" beach town vibe. |

If 21 doesn't top you out, then that's a reeeally nice pond... what was your surface bait? Always heard that a diving rattler is best when its still chilly, something loud and showy to make them shake off the sluggishness and strike. |

It's part of one of the best stretches of beach in the world IMO. And I would know. white quarts sand is the BEST. You can drive the road on the beach a few miles and be all alone on that MFer too if you so choose. I miss it, I really do. I miss the small town feel, and how you can cruise the beach from Alabama to Destin, Fl Right on the water with minimal congestion. This shit down here is a ****ing zoo. The population makes it crazy. Luckily the bass are about 20 feet from my back door. if you do head that way look for a spot in Gulf Breeze. Good neighborhoods in there. The best fishing is in Orange beach on the FloraBama line, though. |

Hitting Lake Texoma on Friday with my family. Have a guided striper/catfish trip planned. I haven't caught a catfish in 10+ years.
