Added some Millennium rod holders to my Roughneck yesterday. Took my neighbor and his son today. We kept 20 nice ones and was off the water at lunch when the crowd showed up.

I like those rod holders. I would switch if I didn't have so much invested in Driftmaster rod holders

Slow bite this afternoon on West Point . About a week or two for this spot and it will be right . Still managed enough for a couple good meals . Couple line stretchers that swallowed the hook also.

When you goof it at the ramp and leave your phone on the bed cover of the truck and have an epic day hammering some Big Slabs! This is the Results! Won’t make this mistake Again! Two 2.5lbers made it in the net but I cant prove it.

Caught these last weekend and filet them. This will be my first time frying them up. Do you cooks recommend I use corn meal or flour?

Corn meal, or Zateran's corn flour for fish.

Zatarains
or your favorite cracker crushed with seasonings
milk or egg wash to give a thick coating

Had a really good day at West Point on Sunday. A lot of big females moved up late week in one spot and left another spot where they had been.

Any of you guys using a ACC crappie stix? I'm thinking about a 8ft medium action to throw jigs to open water fish when using my active target

Look right good (G.B.D.)! Bet they tasted better. What batter did you decide on?

 

[BanditOne]

Egg wash, then dipped in the Zatarains (seasoned) batter. Learned that it does not take long when frying those filets

Just enough for me and the wife for supper. Mama and daddy got a couple too.
