I threw it in the water near some trees and caught two fish at the same time! I was so excited and then I never caught another one nor did he that day! Beginners luck!

Drop off a tree and take home a load of mulch! Good deal indeed… I am always sad to see the trees still in the bay that no one bought for Christmas. I think what a waste that poor tree did not need to be cut down…Skeeterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08222522533934405029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7113123529932691813.post-23419085838027480792008-04-21T08:34:00.000-05:002008-04-21T08:34:00.000-05:00Hi Tina --crappie are really good here and we did ...Hi Tina --crappie are really good here and we did catch alot of them in NC too. Have to hit it just right --temperature etc and of course find a crappie bed:) And, Skeeter hubby has done that too --old Christmas trees in the lake for fish coverage. It is a great way to recycle the trees --around here they mulch them up and use them around Dunbar Cave --on the trails.

Of course, as a fisherman you would love to come upon a crappie bed area --you could really catch alot of fish. I guess it would've helped if I spelled it right, lol.
