Super Slab Crappies After A Heavy Rain, Lake Murray, SC

[@detectivemikevarnado7515]

You shared in another video I watched earlier today, that you lost your wife. I'm so so sorry. You brought me to tears. I lost my wife of forty years, June 13 will be two years. It still hurts as tho it was yesterday. God bless you for putting out these videos. You cause me a great measure of laughter also. Thank you "Old Fisherman". LOL

[@theoldfisherman2040]

The hurt never goes away my friend, I can't get her out my mind, Life at home is so hard without her. I'm sure you know the pain.

[@jeffeorypritchard2482]

Great day fishing,I would love to go with you and fish like this.🤙

[@flyingthesails6801]

There is a big difference between a Fisherman and a Sportsman. I know a Fisherman who lives near the lake. No matter what he caught or how little it was, he kept it. When I asked him if he was worried about the DNR rules and limits he just laughed at me. He said he knows most of the DNR officers and they don't care what he does. In South Carolina the Good Ole Boy System is alive and well.

[@theoldfisherman2040]

What are you talking about I don't keep over the limit.

[@theoldfisherman2040]

In South Carolina they will lock you up and throw away the key if you break the law, before making a comment like that you need to get your facts straight.

[@flyingthesails6801]

@@theoldfisherman2040 I was merely stating my observation of what I see happening at Lake Murray and the difference between a Fisherman and Sportsman.

I live on Lake Murray, boy it’s crowded out in the lake fishing on weekends. Some crappie spots will have 15 boats pilled up. 100% he filmed this during the week. Most folks when they or if they can fish during the week and stay home on The Weeknd’s on Murray.

[@theoldfisherman2040]

That's no so I film on the weekend also, most of the time I get away from all the other boats.

[@lifeoutdoors2day357]

I would love a video of how you rigged your live scope to that trolling motor. I have that model and I can figure it out due to the stowage method

[@theoldfisherman2040]

You got to have 2 stand odd brackets.

Mr Steve, you are absolutely the most awesome fisherman...Totally unreal at the skill you display on locating the fish, then the skill you have to figure out whether they want a minnow or a jig.. I am truly amazed and impressed. Those pros,,Mr Crappie etc have nothing on you..
