Sore Thumbs Posted December 31, 2012 Posted December 31, 2012 Today would be a great day for catchin em. Hope the sun stays down for you guys tommorow. Good luck.
Sore Thumbs Posted December 31, 2012 Posted December 31, 2012 My partner was able to get off work. See you guys tommorow. Any advice would be greatly appreciated:-). Good luck
Donna G Posted January 1, 2013 Author Posted January 1, 2013 Glad to hear it. Good luck to you, also. Best advice is stay patient. We don't have an OA sticker on the boat right now. We just traded. In fact we don't have registration numbers on yet. We're in a Z119 Ranger white, silver and black with red pin-striping with a 225 Mercury towed by a silver GMC extended cab. Can't miss me. I'll be the short one in all red Guidewear with my pant cuffs dragging. lol Donna Gilzow Bella Vista, Arkansas The charm of fishing is that it is the pursuit of what is elusive but attainable, a perpetual series of occasions for hope. --John Buchan, 1915
Stump bumper Posted January 1, 2013 Posted January 1, 2013 When someone gets in today, can you please give a water temp and shad kill info, weather station is down but last water temp says 42 so I am thinking shad kill.
Donna G Posted January 1, 2013 Author Posted January 1, 2013 We went from Prairie Creek to the dam. Never saw a temp lower than 47.9. Most of the time it was 48-49. I would have paid good money for the AIR temp to be 48-49. It was quite the endurance test today. 1-1:30 p.m. it started snowing and temperature began dropping. Not even close to the weather forecast we saw before leaving the house this morning. We fished until 2:10 p.m. with only two keepers and decided to put it on the trailer. We weren't the only ones either. Boat is covered in ice. Snug as a bug on the sofa watching the Rose Bowl now. Oh, actually we had three keepers. Mr. Walleye made the trip home with us. Guess we're having black-eyed peas and walleye for New Year's.

Feathers and Fins Posted January 1, 2013 Posted January 1, 2013 Hey your BASS fishermen arnt you suppose to let everything go, that poor walleye lol. Rocky Branch on it by some chance ? https://www.facebook.com/pages/Beaver-Lake-Arkansas-Fishing-Report/745541178798856
Donna G Posted January 1, 2013 Author Posted January 1, 2013 You said it - we're bass anglers. We let BASS go. In reality, the walleye will be released - to the grease. Not far from Rocky Branch.

Feathers and Fins Posted January 1, 2013 Posted January 1, 2013 That is the only way to release walleye https://www.facebook.com/pages/Beaver-Lake-Arkansas-Fishing-Report/745541178798856
Quillback Posted January 1, 2013 Posted January 1, 2013 Sorry to hear the Champ & Donna team did not win it all, I was expecting to pick up tomorrow's paper and see a half page photo with both of you hoisting the trophy (or whatever it is you get for winning that tournament) Weather was nasty today, I did not even think of fishing.
Donna G Posted January 2, 2013 Author Posted January 2, 2013 That is the only way to release walleye According to Champ it is. lol Donna Gilzow Bella Vista, Arkansas The charm of fishing is that it is the pursuit of what is elusive but attainable, a perpetual series of occasions for hope. --John Buchan, 1915
