I see through your evil strategy here....I too was out yesterday with my daughter and went to check out the area you had posted about trolling between Hong Kong and Poole Knobs. I think there were about six boats trolling that area, and didn't see a one catching any fish. (including us)
So with your post today I figured out your strategy....you post where the fish WERE, so all your secret followers will go there and not bother you where you really know the fish ARE today... Pretty sneaky I would say....especially with that nice added touch by implying that only REAL men post accurate fishing reports. (btw - the real REAL men fly a Confederate battle flag off the back of their boat, but I digress).
FWIW - our REAL report for yesterday.. Hit all my typical crappie trolling spots and got bupkiss crappie. Switched to casting for bass and caught 6, including a nice smallmouth and a 3 pound largemouth covered in those black spots - caused by catch and release handling...likely from Merv taking the clients to the same spot to catch the same trained fish over and over again....
(all of the above posted in jest...never met Merv so hope he has a good sense of humor.)

Jeff, here's a short retort to your post.
I went back to the spot in Old Hickory cove where JKTRAVECCA and I caught our hybrids yesterday. Nada, nothing, not ONE frigging bite!
So, even though someone posts about a spot where they caught fish yesterday does not mean the fish will still be there the next day.
This is why I find the "secretive fishermen" so laughable.
As many days as I fish per week, month, year, I am still amazed at the way these fish can disappear from a REGION overnite, seen it happen many, many times.
I've had trips where we would catch 30-40 fish in a four hour trip only to go the next day and catch one or two.
Do some searching around and find them 1-2 miles away.
And as far as the crappie go, we did catch 2 today while fishing for hybrids....in 35 FOW, suspended at 16 ft.
I haven't tried shallow for crappie this year, been busy with hybrids. Both crappie today were whites, both had eggs, and both were12.5 inches?
And I do have a good sense of humor and am not quick to anger or be butthurt.....except for SAMBOLIE. I admire that man like he is a god, and he only insults me. Cuts me to the quick, I've tried everything I know to get him to accept me for the fishing god that I am and, yet, he hates me.
THE BASTARD!
