[cool]Went to Scofield today to get into a ton of crawdad's and hopefully land a few trout still fishin' too, but it was very windy and the damn mudbugs were havin' none of it even with raw drumsticks in four traps. Only ended up with 6 mudbugs, but I caught 6, and a couple were cutbow's I think, with the biggest going about 18 inches and about 2.5 pounds. We really had to work for them. Fished and 'dad hunted right off the dam. We didn't see anyone else catch anything except sunburns. After failing with the usual still-fishing baits[pirate], and chucking a few Jakes spin-a-lures at them, we started to get some shiners in our crawdad traps, so used them, and started to immediately catch fish. I'm taking traps with me everytime I still-fish at Scofield and da Berry for now on!! Those things rock! We killed the minnows first of coarse.
The Crawdad huntin' should really pick up in a couple of weeks with these VERY warm temps coming up.
