Had to catch it twice.

[I Fall In]

So I decided to go fishing this morning. Caught a Crappie right next to this pole and the bulkhead.



When I went to grab it the fish flopped off and landed in this hole behind the bulkhead.



So now I'm on my knees trying to catch this fish again. The hole goes pretty far under that concrete and at one time it was out of sight. So here I am reaching blindly down in this hole hoping there wasn't one of those long scaly critters in there with my Crappie. Of course it went in head first so all I had to grab was it's tail, and we all know how well that works. I kept messing with it until it turned around and I could get my finger in it's mouth and get it out of the hole.

So yes, I guess you could say I have resorted to noodling for Crappie.

I’ve done that before in rip-rap bank fishing. Risky for sure. 🤔

Is noodling for Crappie consider a legal means? I hope those GWs that were at Toledo Bend don't show up at your place.

[I Fall In]

Not sure but I had a lookout just in case

[Reel Time]

I wish I had a video of you noodling that crappie.

I wish I had a video of you noodling that crappie.

It would have been a better video about a month ago when "I Fell In" the same hole. That time I had to go noodling for my flip flop.

That's taking by illegal means. Game warden gonna get you.
