    I would go with Slew or Buff as said above. Both fish completely different but both catch um. Now Slew is a different cat and drinks skinny beer's

      Was gonna go to Fork Friday but I forgot it's after Dec 1st and I would have to keep em all so we ran down to Conroe again and didn't do bad! The water was still 60 degrees and the fish were scattered but we caught enough to have a good mess if we were keeping them! Gonna hunt a few more times and then get serious about the slabs! First national tourney is Crappie Masters Elites on Cross Lake in Louisiana! I've rode a jet ski on that lake as an idiot college student but never fished it!

        I FINALLY figured out a few on Conroe this weekend. Anybody with minnows did absolutely squat while jigs pulled them off the pilings in roughly 16 ft of water. It was slow, for me at least, but the bites i got were hard thumps. Caught 4 gooduns, few throwbacks, and watched a couple guys in kayaks hammer the crappies right in front of me. Few of them are already plum full of eggs.

        Had to make a switch to the feline fishes and even they were slow Saturday.

            They sure did. Can’t get much more fresh than cleaning table and straight into some hot grease.

                    My buddy Moose Watson came down from Missouri to chase crappie this morning. He had seen my post yesterday about catching catfish and asked if we finished up with the crappie early enough, could he catch a few cats.
                    The crappie were really aggressive and 2 hours out he had finished his box so we moved back to my catfish hole. My jar of Stubby’s had froze solid and baiting was a little slow but it still did not take him long to finish off a cooler of cats.
                    The crappie were caught on standing timber 20 to 30 foot deep with a 1/4 oz jig tipped with a minnow. The catfish were in a baited hole 25 foot down on Stubby’s cheese bait

                          I have cleaned around 400 channel cats this year. Started by skinning…. Found out real quick a good electric knife on a board works wonders.
