    Damn fine mess. I love to fillet them with the skin/scales on and soak them in Italian for an hour and then put on the grill (skin side down) until they just turn done. Salt and pepper and it is fit for a king.

    How can one access said holes? Walk in or canoe?
    Listen to your elders. Not because they are always right but because they have more experiences of being wrong.

    The yellow bells on our fence line tell a similar story.

    As a kid that's what I went by.. we had a pond behind our lake house that would fill up when the lake flooded every year, the sand bar would trap them. You'd catch every crappie about 3 feet from the bank. I'd troll with my neighbor a few times a year, but for me it was boring.. once they got around structure though, I'd take my longest fly rod, a few feet of line and a jig and jig them around pilings and under docks. That was fun.

    Rockfish though, after the white bass started disappearing were like cooked crack.. they took precedent over every other fish, on top, not feminine live baiting like NC yankees.

    Galloway had a photographic memory. The actual one. So, we'd catch them shooting under docks and then hit some stump or log in the middle of the lake nobody ever saw he knew about. I guess all the fish finders have killed all that by now. We'd drive around Jenkinsville and see a couple gobblers and bail out. Not a bit of a worry, of course he knew who owned what and had permission. Just a simple fire chief from Gastonia...

    I knew a few humps that got killed by those.. and a few we found. In high school, the morning I graduated we found a hump mid lake right off the old river channel. It rose up to a plateau about 12 feet deep, it was the only hump we'd throw crankbaits on to catch white bass, every so often a rockfish would hit. I always felt weird about not catching them on top. It was my thrill, the only time theyre really never on top is around the 4th.. I've caught rockfish on top every month of the year up there.
