    It was a crappie sorta afternoon.....

    Well, Hide, like I said earlier, I was going crappie fishing, this afternoon, to catch just enough for supper.
    They were biting so good, I decided to keep 'em all, since there's only 2 pkgs. of fillets left in my freezer.
    That hail storm, yesterday, musta knocked 'em crazy because I caught these in about an hour.

    I WILL be there again tomorrow.

    I get "invalid attachment"... but I believe you.. Wind blew 30 -35 this afternoon. I went down below the house here. All I had for bait was a few night crawlers. First thing that bit was a skinny old male carp. Cut chunks out of him and ended up with four nice channels from 3 to 7 pounds.

    Nice job 'Rub.. Pretty batch of whites. My days of cleaning 180 freaking fish are *over*. I'll clean 10 and go again tomorrow.. and the next day. One nice thing - crappie are about as easy to dress any any fish going...

    Just noticing.....:

    1. The arm on the guy in the yellow shirt, in the first pic, is NOT Bucky's....too muscular and un-flabby to be Bucky's.

    2. Bucky has a GPS antennae, sticking outta his left ear, in the bottom pic....that guides him to the location of more of those nasty carp, like he's holding up.

    Come on over here, QA....you're only a couple of hours drive from me....we can hit the cypress swamps, and load up your cooler with slabs.

    You'll be back home before sundown.

    No, that wasn't me. I took the picture. I just was showing the average crappie we caught.

    That's my eyeglasses strap, dingbat. you know I couldn't read any GPS correctly!!!

    P.S
    QA, you're special. He won't ask me. Not that I blame him, or nuthin'.........

    Looks like we're fixing to get pounded again also.. I'd hate to miss out on my third inch of rain in three days..

    Plus we felt and heard the earthquake last night too.
