Now that is strange!

Yea. We used to troll and would load up on crappie. My uncle had a huge house with mostly glass across the front 2 stories. He was just across the cove from our place...

Mr. C., you may want to put some brushpiles under your dock to attract baitfish and put you some good lights out there for night fishing! You're gonna catch some whoppers.

I've caught freshwater drum at Weiss. Good eating! Maybe order you a couple of Catalpa trees and produce your own Catalpa worms for bait! Catfish love 'em!

Thanks! I have a handful of catalpa trees on our place in MS. Our little dock is on a rock wall, and we have some shelter as you mentioned. I haven't thought about a new light. Had one on the old pier but I guess we never thought about it when building the new one.



CarlF: I've got a buddy with a 30ft camper getting ready for some trout fishing at Sipsey Fork. Thanks for that tip. Much appreciated. I've only caught bass/blue gill/crappie on my fly rod. Didn't know we had a place that close.
Do you know any 'special super secret areas?'

Never fished the Sipsey, its way north of me.
All my trout fishing was up in northeast PA, around where Chili went this past spring.

We'll we finally got our camper setup yesterday. Nice little cove in the Cowan Creek area close to the Alabama Belle. I haven't fished that area since I was a young'un with my dad. Never ran a boat in that part of the lake before either, but wont really have to worry about that until i can get another boat.

Send me a private message Mr. C.

Someone mentioned adding brush pile under your new pier...now you have a place to dispose of your old Christmas trees.
