Lance34 Posted January 22, 2023 Posted January 22, 2023 Had to reschedule a trip with a gentleman I had on Friday…. My daughter got her doctors appointment moved up and I needed to be at it… So went on a solo mission Saturday morning…. Dumped the boat in about 7am and got started fishing about 7:30… It started out fast…. By about 9:30 I had 13… My hand was so cold from reaching in the minnow bucket…. I was begging for them to slow up a little for my hand sake…. lol… Just not as bad as it did… From about 10 on to about 11:30 the bite pretty much went nonexistent…. I couldn’t get a fish to bite…. The wind got to ripping and it got cold during that time…. Was about ready to call it but kept at it and then all of a sudden at 11:45 they appeared…. It was on again. Their attitude changed quick…. Got my limit (15) and 6 more trying to put poles up…. If it wasn’t for the rain moving in I would’ve loved to stayed out there until it shut off again… Just too much fun… Lake elevation was 1118.7, lake clarity was pea green and WT was 44…. Set up was slow vertical trolling minnows with 16 BnM BGJP’s with C&C 1/2oz minnow rigs and 1/2oz home made rigs I tie up using Vanguard Tackle and Pico Lures… Depth of fish were 8-10 feet deep in 12-10 fow and relating along the creek channel… See what next weekend brings…. Good fishing and God Bless Lance Hughey Crappie Guide Service Johnsfolly, Daryk Campbell Sr, Quillback and 6 others 9

I sure don’t stare at and play video games with it all day…. Basically isolate depth quickly and run my contour lines…. If I I see one and then I’ll go at it…. But I’m tired of seeing everything about it…. From YouTube to social media.. It’s getting old…. It’s here to stay though…. Use as a tool. But I sure don’t stare at it all day.

Ham Posted February 15, 2023 Posted February 15, 2023 CheaterScope is very helpful even if you aren’t video game fishing. Being able to run a series of brush piles and quickly see which ones have active fish on them w/o dropping a single time. For me, it would be huge just staying lined up with brush piles and being able to present lures properly with maximum efficiency. I think it would be huge for White Bass fishing too, but that’s a theory for me. I don’t have CheaterScope yet.
