Dry camping, drinking beer and catching crappie. That's the life for us Southern Guys.

Nice haul! What's that under your awning, a deep fryer for the fish?

Ha, that's the hp burner I was talking about with the cast iron pot we used to fry a few fish. This is the first year I ever went camping in a camper and can I tell you that beats a tent. Carrying a generator for charging the battery on the TM and an extra 30 gallons of fresh water in nothing compared to everything needed when using a tent. I should have brought a TM years ago didn't know what I was missing out on. Thanks to the trailmanor website and all of you on this forum proving this was a ideal camper for I what I needed. My TM was put for sale on this forum and two weeks later i drove to dallas,tx and picked it up.

Do you eat those fish? Here in the Sierras trout are the only fish we eat. But you sure did catch a bunch of them. I guess southern guys know how to fish.

Here in southern Central Louisiana we put the crappie on the same level as a filet mignon. My father-in-law has a log cabin located in Pagso springs, Co. and we catch rainbow trout, that's a very good eating fish also. I was looking on the web site you gave, that's a beautiful lake/site.

LOL--My grandfather always told me, it's all in the wrist :) We were using 30 YOYO's and baiting with shinners. In central louisiana the fishing will become more consistent once the water tempature reaches 75 degrees.
