ME MY STEP DAD AND MY MOM WENT CAMPING AT NEWMAN AT THE EAST END OF THE LAKE WE STAYED AT THE CHEROKEE RESORT.HT THE LAKE SAT. AT ABOUT 8:30 HEARD ABOUT THE CRAPPIE FISHING SO WE TRYED JIGS UNDER SLIP BOBBERS MY STEP DAD CAUGHT ONE DINK BASS.. ONLY FISH FOR ABOUT AN HOUR THEN WE FISHED SOME STUMPS AND I CAUGHT A LITTLE BASS ALSO AND MY STEP DAD CAUGHT A GOOD SIZED BLUEGILL..
WENT IN FOR LUNCH AND AS I WAITED FOR MY STEPDAD TO FINISH I TOOK A CRAPPIE JIG TO THE DOCK AND STARTED NAILING BASS LEFT AND RIGHT. MIND YOU THE AREA AROUND THE DOCK IS ONLY ABOUT 3 FT DEEP CAUGHT THREE KEEPERS AND MY STEP DAD CAUGHT TWO..
WE MUST HAVE CAUGHT 20 BASS THERE.. THEN WE TROLLED ALONG THE LILLY PADS AND TALKED TO A GUY THAT SAID HE WAS NAILING THE BASS ON SPINNERBAIT SO I THREW MINE INSTANTLY CAUGHT A 14 INCH FISH ANOTHER CAST AND ANOTHER ONE JUST LIKE IT MY STEPDAD NONE....
AS WE TROLLED BACK THROUGH I USED A CRAPPIE JIG AND GOT A TINY PERCH AND ONE MORE DECENT ONE AFTER THAT..
ALL BASS REALEASED!
NOW ITS ABOUT 8:00 AND I CATCH A KEEPER CRAPPIE ANOTHER PERCH MY STEPDAD CATCHES A BULLHEAD AND SO DO I.
AFTER THAT ONE JUST ONE MORE CRAPPIE ALSO IT WAS RAINING ON AND OFF ALL DAY SO MY STEP DAD WENT IN I FIGURED THE CRAPPIE WERE BITING SO I HIT THOSE STUMPS AGAIN AND GOT MY LIMIT OF LEGAL CRAPPIE ONE PUSHING 2.2 POUNDS!! MY BIGGEST TO DATE.. THE NEXT MORNING {TODAY} GOT TWO MORE KEEPER BASS AND WE LEFT AND WENT TO WEST MEDICAL WHICH WE ONLY CAUGHT PUMPKINSEEDS..

You've inspired me to give that lake another shot. I haven't had a lot of luck on that lake in the past. Great report!
