Caught some monsters

[Blue_Runner]

The weekend before last we caught some slab crappies off my dock. *I mean like about 5 two pounders and some others that were pretty good sized. *I didn't have the cam of course. *So this past weekend we tried again. *As soon as I pulled up I saw that the wind was coming outta the southwest and I know they don't bite when the water is being pushed that way *>:( *
Sure enough, they didn't bite....but these little guys did:

Some friends stopped by while I was fishing and took me for a ride on the seadoo jet boat. *Got me soaked as I sat on the bow when a wave came over *:-/

Nice place BR. I know a couple of guys who have HR places, I plan on spending a little time there this season.

Thanks RB....maybe I'll see you around. I spend most of the time on the Abbotts creek side but do venture out under #8 bridge to the river side as well.

Cy, yes those would have been some good flathead catfish baits ;)

Is Abbots Cr. the one that eventually goes under 85 between Old 64 and #8?

Yep that's Abbotts. *My lake lot is off of Old Mountain Road which is near Central Davidson School.

Up the creek where it gets narrow there is a powerline with 4 of those huge orange balls. *Always was told it was so airplanes wouldn't hit the lines. * Anyway, we call it 4 balls and that's a popular place to cruise to, then turn around and come back.

I call my place 2 balls for reasons unspoken. ;D ;)

It takes a lot of time to get to Japan to buy fresh fish.
