Why we didn't catch any crappie...

[Beans]

My bro-in-law and I figured the high water made the lake so deep that all the fishes drowned...

That sounds logical to me.

Wait until it dries right up, it'll be gangbusters!

Sorry for your luck Beansie. However it leaves me filled with hope that they will be on good when Debbe and I are up there from May 3rd to 12th

[Moosebunk]

Ahhhh Beans. Take up muskie fishing come opener then, cause they'll have fed up fat on all that free drowned meat.

[NAW]

That's it. Trust me. It's happened to me a few times before!

And here ive been fishin dead water for years.

Oh well back to the drawing board.

Went out to one of my old favorites yesterday with Pikeslayer and his son-in-law, counted 32 boats in the little bay we like to fish. There wasn't a lot of catching going on and of the ones that were being caught most of them were small. A couple of hours fishing and we managed to bring home 10 that were big enough for the table but the biggest one we caught was only about 11".

 

It was still a nice day to be out on the water and spend some time with an old friend.

Hey Bunk...The only time I try trolling for muskie is opening day (1st Sat in June) and a couple of years I ended up with good size pickeral above the slot size...I have caught some muskie fishing for bass with a tube/finesse minnow under a float...One year I caught a muskie while fishing for carp with corn on my hair rig...
