Feathers and Fins Posted May 24, 2014 Posted May 24, 2014 J-doc and I met at the ramp at 6 am this morning and fished until 11:15 for 17 Crappie plus 2 shorts and a couple lost at the boat. 2 keeper Walleye 19’’ and 21’’ along with a handful of small walleye and one small but ambitious white bass. Rocky Branch area Water temp was 73.9 Visibility was 4 to 7 ft Cloudy overcast conditions little wind Bait’s were Bobby Garland in Pearl white and Flicker shad #6 Crappie wanted varying retrieves from the bottom to just below surface with the Bobby Garlands. Walleye were in 8 to 12ft and hit the flicker shad on Points. A few crappie came off the flickers in 12 fow over flats and Creek Channel ledges. https://www.facebook.com/pages/Beaver-Lake-Arkansas-Fishing-Report/745541178798856
zarraspook Posted May 24, 2014 Posted May 24, 2014 Looks like a good supper... Thanks for the "where, when, what, and how" report !! "Look up OPTIMIST in the dictionary - there is a picture of a fishing boat being launched"
kjackson Posted May 25, 2014 Posted May 25, 2014 Nice, good report. I'm envious, especially the "no wind" part. One of these days, a windless day will coincide with a planned fishing trip. All that I'll need then is for the fish to cooperate.
Feathers and Fins Posted May 25, 2014 Author Posted May 25, 2014 The lack of wind was made up for in the shenanigans that went on. Its real fun fishing when someone tries to hit a bent over person in another boat with a crappie jig, or throws fish at another boater and we will not discuss the Fullmoon today. Suffice to say it was not a pg13 day on the lake. https://www.facebook.com/pages/Beaver-Lake-Arkansas-Fishing-Report/745541178798856

Feathers and Fins Posted May 25, 2014 Author Posted May 25, 2014 Hey I was nice and did not mention the multiple attempts you made to catch the same bush. I would have thought you were trying to elect another bush lol https://www.facebook.com/pages/Beaver-Lake-Arkansas-Fishing-Report/745541178798856
kjackson Posted May 25, 2014 Posted May 25, 2014 Sounds like a good time. With the crappie going gangbusters, I may have to see if I can find some my way. I can't help but think of the "thousands" of salt cedars removed from the Devil's Eyebrow area that were reported to be used in Indian Creek piles. With a little work, I might even be able to rig my boat to do a spider-rig variation from the stern.
Feathers and Fins Posted May 25, 2014 Author Posted May 25, 2014 Yes you can KJ and its easy to do https://www.facebook.com/pages/Beaver-Lake-Arkansas-Fishing-Report/745541178798856

J-Doc Posted May 25, 2014 Posted May 25, 2014 Partial eclipse. Not enough area to be considered a fulloon Very true. Just a sneak peak. Lol!!!! Need marine repair?
