Gator, Chickamauga, Crappie, 4/8/13, Derrell - FishNews - 04-11-2013
Today I took the husband of the lady that donated a kidney to my wife 5 weeks ago. I&#39;ve tried every way I can think of to thank him and his wife for their generosity up to and including taking him fishing today. Hopefully there will be more days I can take him. My wife and his wife are both doing great, THANK THE LORD!!!!!<br /><br />He is a minner type crappie guy but today he learned about fishing with BG&#39;s and shooting docks. Today it was WINDY, WINDY, and Windy.<br />The boy caught onto it pretty good for a newbee. We were able to catch fish in most places, however the size wasn&#39;t great today. Most fish were caught under docks on about 5 or 6 count as long as the dock had 10 fow, however many were caught in brush that was at least 5 ft. deep, seems like the deeper the brush the better. We tried some shallow spawning areas but nothing found.<br /><br />We used BG&#39;s all day, moglo white, chartruce, chicken, and shad colors, seems like the chartruce produced the best. We fished from about 8am until 3:30 and finished with 40 crappie and brought home 10 keepers.<br /><br />A great day on the water, did I mention it was WINDY. Sorry forgot to take pics.
