April 23rd Double Report

So it rained at the start but my clients had rain jackets. Then it rained a bit more and I put on my rain gear..minus pants because I knew it would stop soon..WRONG WRONG WRONG. Soaked we flipped docks and brush piles till mid day and then it happened. It rained even harder. Dang did I get this day wrong. Lots of small crappie and few mud cats where caught. But every third crappie was a keeper and those pesky white perch kept stealing our bait. Undaunted by the weather we pressed on and scored some decent crappie till the sun came out and just like that we ran out of bait. Still soaked to the bone we headed back and honestly uhm really had a blast flipping today.
Single rod did the trick today.

It was supposed to rain a little in the morning and then get sunny and warm.  It was supposed to rain a little in the morning and then get sunny and warm  It was supposed to rain a little in the morning and then get sunny and warm.  That's what we kept saying all day as we fished soaked and cold.   Oh,  we had raingear,  it was safe and dry in truck.    We were cold,  wet and wind blown but,  catching fish helped keep us occupied.  Not hot and heavy but,  enough to keep our interest until we ran out of bait.  We packed up and headed to the ramp.   NOW the sun comes out.  Still windy though.  Five nice eater cats and a pile of crappie.  And now,  the dry out...

Re: April 23rd Double Report

You guys scored well despite getting wet. I kept looking at the radar and the rain looked like it would pass "soon". Then it just hung on top of our area.....the river really got wet!


Time to go fishin' again!
