Anybody fishing this weekend??????????

[RB]

With the cooler weather, better lake and river levels it would seem that some of us would be fishing somewhere. Does anybody have plans to wet some lines over the weekend? We have a family reunion but Saturday, after brush hogging duty, I'm going to slip up to the Missouri which is close by and catch a few cats for the freezer. Neighbor has a pond with some hog blue gill in it. He'll let you fish but its all catch and release. for some reason he will let us whack the frogs one time a summer and he has some the size of chickens but limits the number of froggers to two. Post up what you are doing this weekend and have a safe holiday.

Heading to Trumam. I don't know yet if I'm going to try to trotline or crappie fish, but I'd be happy with either one. Before October I am going to set some lines though and get some catfish in the freezer for the winter.

WM, I heard the crappie bite is heating up and this fish are outside of the timber on the bluffs. You can do both. I was trolling there last month with wiggle warts and caught a nice cat and a walleye and crappie.

Hopefully, I'll be fishing with Hobiecat this weekend.

Rafe, where are you guys fishing and what are you fishing for?

I think we're camping on a little creek near the Newton/McDonald County line. In that case, we'll be wade fishing for smallmouth and goggle eye. I don't know anything about that particular creek, or even if we'll be right there by the creek. I'll find out when we get there. We're taking our 8 y.o. boys with us.

Rafe, sounds like a great time especially for 8 yr olds. Hobie's son had a great time at the hoe down. Too bad you weren't there with your son. Maybe next year.

Our kids are just a few months apart. He loves anything guys do. It'll be a good trip, I'm sure.
