cats, carp, and all the other misunderstood, fishing tourney

[fox_76]

how bout a camp/ fishing get together for all? everyone has caught a bass but to enter a tourney with some of you guys,... well i'll just write you a chek now and save the gas$$$ it would take,lol. but how bout a couple of days worth of fishing? all you bass and daytime fishers can go during the day and get burned and all that fun stuff, the rest of us will wait until night and pull in some big ones to fry up,... if any one would like to get together on stockton lake and do some all night fishing let me know

I missed this post... so what exactly would you like us to do?

I've done very well night fishing under lights on Stockton Lake but have only gone once so I'm only one-for-one. Sounds like fun.

I have a spot on Stockton that could hold 50 bank-fisherman--we Carp fish mostly, but catch quite a few channel cats, nice thing its very open and always a breeze to keep the bugs off--we had a fish in last Summer and it was a blast there--not much on eating carp, but the cats are good "weenee roast " any ways Me and my CAG buds could bait it up over a couple of weeks

i guess we would just need to get a common place to go or a meeting place to meet and then go, i can post maps, if mo knows a place that can support 50, and still catch something, then it sounds like the battle is half way won, now i guess we just need to get some members to join us,

i went to a place last night i hadn't been to in a while and brought home 3 nice channels, carp where "flying"(some really big ones) everywhere in the cove, i'm going to post a sketch of the place as soon as i can, it created a quite unique fishing opprotunity for different species, landed the 3 cats, 4 drum, could get the carp to bite, and i had my line broken 2 times!!! this all within the last hour of daylight, MAN WHAT A GOOD TIME!!! this place could support several, maybe like

anyway i'm pretty new to this fish in thing, and it sounds like you guys are a little more familiar with it, i just would like the opprotunity to fish with some of you guys and see what i can learn and how much fun we could have!!!

hey mo-- how bout s'mores???

sounds like a great idea, we'll get together soon. the spot on stockton Mo is talking about is about 200 yds from a camp ground with great bank access.

I would be interested,just depends if I can get away on the dates you guys decide on.

Snagged.

ok sketch is rough but this is a hot spot,..

the red dots are where i found the fish to mainly be, the green is weeds(sparse and fishable) the pink/purple slashes are submerged trees, and the pink/purple x's are free standing trees, the shore line is rock, some large but mostly pea gravel, lots of carp jumping some very large,

very good catfishing, the pool on the left is about 6-8 feet deep(est.) the pools bank on the top of sketch is a small rock bluff, the break between the main lake and the pool is about 75 feet across, the main lake are is pretty deep 20-30 ft,

and the shore line at the bottom right is actually a rock bluff that can be fished very easily since the water is down(great for you night time crappie guys), the black is the access road and the little yellow dot,.. well that's me, fishin' my little heart out!!!lol.

i like this area for size, convienence, variety of fishing, it's hardly ever fished to any great extent, have never seen more than one or two people there and i frequent this spot alot.

i'm up for suggestions on places, dates are somewhat limited, but of course weekends are best.
