outasync I was out saturday. Decided to avoid the crowds from the tourney. 20+ boats drifting over the same hump is a bit ridiculous. I had the same results tho. Nothing! But at least it can only get better!
Yeah, it was a little ridiculous, we would get over a hump and next thing u know 6-7 other boats show up around us. The wind wasn't cooperating at all either, i think that was another big problem this weekend.

Nice catch BTDT! I was at camp all weekend, so I didn't make it out. Sounds like I didn't miss much with the tourney going on.

It took 5 pounds at the crappie tourney, just to make the top 50. I didn't fish it, I was busy cleaning the pontoon all morning and making sure the motor ran, prior to putting it the lake for the summer. I did fish off my dock on Saturday night and caught a 14 inch Smallmouth, two perch and a bullhead. My neighbor fished off his dock and caught three walleye, two of which were keepers. He was using worms on the bottom, I was using medium minnows from Poffs.

Thanks for the flowers fellas, I appreciate it. It's been almost a year since I've been on the water and I plan on making up for lost time. Got to try out a brand new never been used before, rod and reel which I bought as a Christmas present for my wife. (Hey, it works(I think😜)) All fish were caught using a red & white spider or a red and white bucktail jig from my screwed up personnaly tied, collection of jigs. Fish were not aggressive in hitting the baits for the most part. As with jig fishing, keeping the line taught, led to "feeling the weight" of the fish. Sorry, no spot burning even though I know, my secrete would be safe here on the boards. However, I will say, some area lakes do heat up, well before others. In closing, with regard to the fish (can you believe it?) I caught, may I just say...... stupid fish! Sujie Concealed carry to go fishing?? Shooting a coyote because he grows at you? My, my. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AmWAFz7LjKs
No, concealed not required, open carry is perfectly legal but some people get nervous, at the sight of a gun. https://youtu.be/t59TYYKEUR8

Please have your son call the park office and provide us with the details of the story (Date, time, description of the animal, etc). 724-932-3142 ext 103 The coyote decoy is being tested as a goose deterrent and will be moved around to different locations throughout the course of the summer. If it truly caused a hazard to our visitors, we need to know. Thank you.

Didn't catch them wading thunderpole, but my spot was on fire today. The black dog and I found a few friends to have over for dinner. Would've been done an hour earlier, but somebody left their net skills at home for 3 nice fish. Good luck everyone!

Couldn't resist trying again this afternoon after yesterdays outing. Wind and fishing was pretty slow when I got there, but finally got a decent breeze and it was on. Had one hot hour of fishing, then the wind changed and I lost the fish. Tried like he'll, but couldn't manage #6. Tight lines! More fish porn.....

Way to go guys. Looks like some fat fillets on those crappie mopars. My dad couldn't take anymore nightly fish pics, so I took him out today. The wind machine was pounding away when I got there and the big chop was on. Great day with my dad boating fish and even doubled up. 2 man limit in 2 1/2 hrs. Fishing has been unreal for me lately, and I'm taking advantage of it. Tight lines!

Now if anyone wants to throw a depth to target for crappie or walleye in my pm i wont complain 😁
