After the insanity of an almost 200 boat bass tournament Saturday, I had a chance to go and have some real fun Sunday afternoon on the Finley.

Crappie are moving into wherever you find the warmest water, near brush.

Backwaters, slow pools and anything timber or brush in slow or no current.

Caught about 20, all 10" or so on float and 16th oz. stubby butt in albino
suspended about halfway down whatever depth I was at: If it was 6 ft. deep I would put it about 3 ft. down. Nice fun day canoeing!

Ok, here we go! And from the man who ought to know. How lucky could I get? Man I can’t believe you could post this, with over 759 views and not one response. What are these people, pee shy? I would love to know where I could find crappies on the Finley River! White or black, I don’t care! Size, I don’t care! Just as long as they are crappie! Tell me every thing you know about the crappie and I will be your friend! I will come to your house and wash it! I will wash your car, boat, mow your grass, empty your trash, rotate your tires, fix your roof, clean out the cellar, do your taxes, and walk your dog! I’ll even bury your enemies that you killed off over the winter that are stacked up in the back yard! Just tell me where I can find some crappies! PLEASE!

This was from early '06 so I'm fairly sure the Crappie aren't in the same spots right now. Just try any of the big slow pools near timber and you're bound to catch a couple. You might catch a White Bass or Walleye, too. You just never know on the Finley.

WHAT !

That’s it?

LOOK FOR WATER ?

Come on man! Is that all you got?

Now I feel like that Mexican guy Too co in that old Client Eastwood movie called The Good – The Bad – And The Ugly!
Remember the part where he’s finding out about the gold from the wounded one eye soldier (Bill Carson) in the back of the stage coach, where he says, In the Finley, OK! In the water, OK! But the location has to have a name, be in a certain river stretch, or be next to something! LOL

Can you get me closer than that? Your secret is safe with me Angel eyes (The Bad)! I know how to find crappies once I find the body of water their in. PM me if you don’t want everyone to know.

Geeese,... you’re the son of a thousand mothers! LOL

Why would you think you’re bad for asking about a spot to fish Daveinozark? Do you go through life thinking you deserve a spanking? LOL Hey, that’s kinky man! LOL If anyone tries to spank me their going to find out I spank back! I thought that’s what this forum was all about, fishermen helping fishermen and we’re supposed to ask these kinds of questions. Being a natural born comedian I always try and throw in a little humor to help make it easier for a man to give up this information. I know it’s hard sometimes to give up your secrete spot. But all you can do is ask and there’s no guaranty you’ll get an answer. I sure don’t feel bad for asking. Ask and ye shall receive, search and it will be opened unto you! Now get out there and start asking people where you can catch a big one at!

Yeah, you’re my brother Larry! LOL

I like your post too! In fact I’ve been looking for a lock nest monster every since you brought it up! I like your blog page. I’m glad to see you have a sense of humor. Some people just don’t get my humor. I posted a response that I thought was funny in a thread called “3p Triathalon” but I heard those puckering sphincter noises again. LOL Oh well, it’s a tough crowd, a tough crowd! What can you do but march on?

Yank, I can already tell I am going to have to come pick you up some day so we can catch some crappie. I've got a lot of critters to hunt coming up, but come hell or high water, we're going to have to get some sac a laits for your pond. It goes against everything I believe in, but I am starting to believe in your cause...just cause I like the way you roll... You might have to drive farther than your neighboorhood creek though.

Thanks Reb,
You know, you’re alright. No I mean it! Your ok! I don’t care what your kids say. LOL These hillbillies don’t know what crappies are! I’m just trying to locate some so I can pick up a few in the spring but so far no luck. I may have to go against everything I believe in as well and cross that mason/Dixon line! “Have pole – will travel” may become my battle cry! Thanks for looking out for me. If you hear of anything in my neck of the woods let me know.

I think I'm starting to get your humor..... In any case it kinda lightens up a thread.

I’M JUST TRYING TO FIND SOME CRAPPIES! LOL

My kin folk have all turned again me! They’ve done give me the evil eye! They want rid of me because I’m old and can’t find any crappies! I can’t feed’em! My fingers are all crippled up with the rumatissum and I can’t turn my reel any more! I’m all worn out in the service of my family. LOL

I remember the first night I meet my wife. I could tell she liked me. I liked her too so I didn’t beat around the bush, I just told her straight out I didn’t like a woman that was too sensitive or vulnerable……. So she stabbed me! LOL

When I found out she could cook I married her! But now that I’m old and all crippled up with the rumatissum and can’t find the crappie, she carries me out to the cement pond everyday and throws me in! There’s no brush for me to grab hold of with my old crippled hands to pull myself out! LOL (Where’s that damn violin)(Violin starts) I can’t even swim! I just have to float and hope the wind blows me to shore. (Begins to cry) Someday the wind doesn’t even blow! If only I could find some crappies close to the house then I’d be a hero again and maybe they would feed me! I just weigh fifty pounds. (Cough, cough, wheeze)

So please, if anyone out there knows where an old crippled up fifty pound man can find some crappies and you want to help save my life please call this toll free number at:

1-800-HERE-THEY-ARE that’s 1-800-HERE-THEY-ARE call now, operators are standing by!

I can’t believe it! LOL
Look at ya! See how ya are?
You’d all leave a poor helpless old crippled 50lb man floating on his back in the cement pond rather than give up one of your fishing spots. Shame on you! Shame, shame, shame! I’ve got algae growing on my back and moss growing on my chest! The ducks use me as an island, and still no one cares! LOL (Violin starts) Where you born without a heart? Where’s your compassion? (sniffles) Think of my poor, poor little hillbilly children. Can’t you just see their poor little sunken in brown eyes looking up at you begging for a bite of crappie? We’ve all got rickets from no omega Threes! Little Timmy can’t feel his legs! Where’s the crappie poppa? Where’s the crappie poppa, they ask me as they cry their selves to sleep at night! Maybe they’ll tell me tomorrow I say, maybe tomorrow! I kiss their little foreheads and shoe away the flies. LOL (oh, that was good right there) Then I spread the news papers out over their little rickety bodies and start to gently sing until all I can hear is the sound of little growling tummies…….

When the sun came up this morning
I took the time to watch it rise

I thought how small and unimportant
All my troubles seem to be
And how lucky
Another day belongs to me

Please share the crappies
So my children will live you see
You’ll save their lives
And little Timmy will still be with me

Then in the pond we’ll put some crappies
So we can watch’em spawn
And I’ll say how lucky
That you were a friend to me

And I may cry a little
With joy on bended knees
As I choke my wife
Because she was mean to me

LOL



Come on, I ked, I ked!
Oh well, it’s my song it should have a happy ending, remember I’ve been floating in the cement pond because you won’t share your fishing spot! I’m sorry but I’m just a little delusional from the hunger, the cold, the algae, the moss, the ducks – PLUS I CAN”T SEE DAMNIT! LOL (starts to cry) I MISSED EVERYONE LOVE’S RAMOND BECAUSE OF YOU! LOL
