Looks like I may have a lot
of fishing time on my hands so
I plan to go after some of those
crappies that are beginning to
show up at High Rock. I
learned that they are also
filling stringers at the KenScott
Dam in North Wiikesboro.
Just in case some of the
local folk would like a trip up
to the dam, there are some
good picnicing to be had at
Kerr Scott. I have been
passing up some fishing
engagements for quite a
while; missed out on a flyrod
session with. E.L. Jackson.

fisherman and I have him
interested in going after them
with a flyrod. George Hill
considers me a bit of a liar
since 1 have only made
promises to go along on
several fishing trips. George
does most of his fishing at the
High Rock Dam. He. has
accounted for some good
bluegill, largemouth and
white bass catches. His son
Junior skunks him most of the
times.
Rev. J.D. Peterson, an
ardent hunter and sportsman,
has caught the fishing fever.
He has been going along with
Hairston Burrell to do some
crappie chasing down on the
Thom-Lex Lake. Using a
telescopic fibre glass pole,
Rev. Peterson is in store for
some real surprises, especially
if he gets a bass on while
cnppie fishing. One of these
Monday mornings I hope to

introduce Rev. Peterson to the
art of bass fishing on Dan
Smith's farm pond. Dan's
pond was constructed about 15
years ago. By now there
should be some plate size
bluegill and real lunker bass in
residence there. 1 would not
be surprised if there are bass
in that bond weighing 10 |p 12
pounds.
If you are not having any
success wun your crappie
fishing maybe you should
' change your fishing hours.
Crappie, like the bass, are
predatory fish, striking almost
any thing alive that moves and
are usually on the move early
in the morning and late
evenings.
A lot of crappies are caught
while night fishing. I have
caught more crappies fishing
late evenings than any other
time of the day. Most of the
Lexington crappie fishermen
go down to High Rock in the
late afternoons and stay until

dark. Spinning a rig, plastic
?float and a white miller fly^I
use the jumping method;
casting only to the dimples
made by crappies hitting top
water. When the rig touches
down 1 allow the fly to sink.
With a couple of cranks the
line straightens out behind the
float.
Alter popping the float to
attract the fish that just
dimpled the water I begin a
steady retrieve. The fish will
strike hard enough to set the
hook of the moving fly.
Continuing the retrieve until
the fish is four or six feet from
the bank or boat I then lift it
up and out without slapping it
against the boat or bank; when
using a spinning reel. If using
a pole I lift the fish up and
move the pole to a verticle
position and the fish will
swing to my empty hand for
unhooking. With a pole one
gets a positive control when a
fish is hooked.
