Ooops I did it again.....

[TyeDyeTwins]

I just couldn't help myself. Played hookie and headed to Willard again.

Showed up at 4:30pm to the north marina.


Decided to try the ramp area....pretty good choice as I nailed a 10 inch black crappie on the 1st cast!


Within 5 minutes I had a "super crappie" on the end of my line. Sure enough it was a silly little wiper.....

And then I managed a 11.25 inch black crappie.....


After that the boats came in thick, even running over our bobbers at times with little consideration for the shore anglers or each other. Truly a "mad max world" out there.

But no matter I still got into them again, and again, and again...about 11 times to be exact, with several other lost.


With my limit of black crappie it was time to get some pizza, ice, and band aides at Flying J before trying for some bigger wiper.

Arrived at 8:30 with a MASS OF BUGS!!! Did I mention bugs? I looked with a darn crazy person swatting constantly, mumbling obscenities, pacing back and forth. Even with bug spray I could not keep my sanity. I think there are less mosquitoes in the Uintas!

Luckily this wiper helped me hang in there......


I left by 9:30pm, others had fires on the beach and appeared to be in for the long haul.


For me, I had to pick up my twin by 11pm so I couldn't stay.


Here is the last shot....after many shots to be exact.. 3am is the best time to fillet fish anyway.

Hopefully forever!!!!

But I know that at least for me, places are hot and then they are NOT after awhile! The key is getting there while the "getting" is good.

I thought the weather today would shut them down so I got in there last night, hopefully this isn't the case.

You'd be ashamed to catch them the way I did.

Powerbait crappie nibbles![blush]

It works for you and many others. If it works it can't be all bad. I love your pictures!

It sure is tough to get good pics without a fishing partner.

I recruited beach rats to take my pics of me with my fish. Sometimes they would look bothered by my "high standards" but most of the time it worked out.

Some of them take as good of shots as my twin...others could use a photography class or two.[laugh]

I haven't had anyone say no though. I like pictures for memories to look back on later, and having myself in the shot is worth the hassle of asking someone to do it at the time.

You mean to tell me Mojo isn't fishing as much anymore?

Boss just called, told me I have a few hours to kill tomorrow from about 11am to about 3pm when I have to go to Layton City at 4pm....where to go, where to go?

Too bad I think he wants me to reamin in SLC till then. I swear there is enough time for Willard!!![][]

Uh-oh I might have an obession with Willard!
