Two crazy guys in the rain...or, "Where's your rainsuits, are you nuts??!!" - fish_a_holic - 11-16-2006

Me and my fishing partner, crappiehunter went out today and fished in the pouring rain and biting wind...the Kankakee backwater areas are heating up!

I was using a marabou jig n minnow combination under a float and crappiehunter was using an aberdeen hook under a float with a minnow. We had the most success fishing the isolated tips of laydowns (probably because the ends lay in the deeper sections of the bayou; while a few fish came drifting our presentation along the shoreline away from cover.

Katie and I seranaded Mike until it drove him crazy, then we got down to business...

ABOVE: a few of the 28+ crappies we ended up with before the rain and wind got worse than it already was.

Nature Notes: The juncos have arrived! We also saw several nuthatches and the ever present belted kingfisher.

...all in all, it was another nice day down by the Kankakee!
