Good week to burn some sick days?!?

Was going to break my boat out but with weather being cold next week, I decided against it.

Here ya go sloanzp: Caught a 12" & 14" lm while crappie fishing. Quite fun on a 10' rod with 6# test line!!

Sure beats what I'm doing.

Doc says the surgery went well. Just started driving this week and headed back to work on Monday. I've already got a bad case of cabin fever. I don't think it would be so bad if there was ice on the water, but I could still be fishing LOL. Walleyes are stacking up in the Wisconsin river, and I would bet the crappies are in their wintering holes on the Fox Chain. Oh well...

New to the forum, but I've been lurking for a while lol. Did a little crankbait fishing at clinton last weekend, and made a quick video. 

 

 

If you like crappie fishing, check out my other two videos on my channel. If you've got a youtube account, I'd appreciate some subscribers   I'll be putting videos out pretty regularly since I live close to 2 power plant lakes.

From Marissa, IL.  Just got my boat and will be heading to several Southern Illinois lakes this coming year as well as Ky. Lake and to Texas for another shot at Lake Fork.  Fished Kincaid three time this fall.

 

Enjoy the tight lines.

Welcome to the forums

Been hunting all fall and forgot to fish. 

hope all is well with you all...looking forward to a better next year than it was this year for fishing!

Thanks again IL

 

At a little less than a billion dollars a year? And they still need to raise rates??? WOW

I drove on some of those toll roads, 2 yrs ago, going to Wisconsin dells. This past year we went to Milford lake, ks. Kansas toll roads made  Illinois toll roads look and feel like oil & chip.

 

Merry Christmas Fibs!
