Pineview

[Jmorfish]

IceMan -- I feel your pain; I've had days like that, but last nite shouldn't have been like that for you.....buddy and I finally got started about 5:00 (after drilling around looking for my preferred depth) and we were right there near Tent City off No. Cemetery Pt. like every one else....Nite before I prepared 4 rods with different lures : small red/white Demon...sunfish slush bug...chartreus banana bug...and small chartreus tailed blood worm....All these lures have Glo heads or bodies and would benefit by occassionally re-charging them.....My buddy had some different, some similar, and all worked at different times....that is the key for me....show them something different every once in awhile, including your bait offerings....I was doing good (off and on) with waxies, butter worms, crappie McNuggets, half mealworms.....and my buddy caught some with spikes also....Of course we missed a bunch, but I had a nice limit by 8:00, my friend was ready to go with his 6 (his first time nite fishing for crappie) so I gave him a bunch of mine and we were both happy with a good first-of-season Pineview outing....and yes, FRIGID cold taking down...-12 at truck...Guluk...and get some while you can...
