"Bluegill Bite Was On"
« on: Feb 03, 2006, 06:51 PM »
Heard we we're gonna be gettin some snow,so we decided to get one good last boat trip in.These fish have been sticking around this one area for damn near a week now,these last 5 days we have flat spanked they're butt's,I won't say how many we got,but its in the Hundreds for sure,I guess they are stocking they're freezers now,water tempature was right at 39 degree's,and the bite was consistent all day,heres a few pictures from today..... ;)

This was our evening view
Heres Smitty on one
Heres Brawler with a pig
Myself with one of ten crappies we got
Here's Smitty
wanna have some fun????Fish with these two guys for 8 hours,I had a blast fellows,nothing like catching big gills in Feburary.....

Nice job guys :D :D :D

I assume this was the one East of NC, North of SR 36 ;) ;) ;)

Thers no better lake for gill fishing.  I have said before, I have fished this lake since it opened, and it is still the same today as it was then.

Again,  great job!!!  Pimp, I'm still hoping to meet you on the ice some day, maybe MO can join us, if he can make the trip.   Hey MO, we'll get "Her" to join us next ice.....

Sorry i missed you. I didn't get on until too late to go. Glad to see they are still biteing. After this cold front passes, i'm going to be out there. Give me a hint. Are you on the east end? I know how you are catching them but WHERE is the question. I'm working next week but get off at 2:30. Hopefully no more rain!!!!!  Good job guys!! Glad somebody is catching fish without haveing to drive to Canada!  See you out there soon!

Man what a great time today!!!!  I just got finished filleting fish, and I'm sitting here munching on fresh gills as I'm typing this.  I can't thank jimmy and smitty enough for the hospitality.  The front that's coming through will slow things down a bit, but fish have to eat and I just have to fish. ;) Hey jimmy, the pictures were really good, and the wife commented on the beautiful sunset.  Give me a call, because you know it's a daily thing for me. ;D

Would shure like to know where a guy could catch some of those fish. Where about you getting them? Took the boat out last week and caught 4 eyes only 1 keeper., Had fun! Wondering if this cold front is going to maybe make some late winter ice. Actually gave up on ice fishing about Christmas. Doesn't hurt to have fish dreams though. Fish on.
