Leaving out for Arkansas tomorrow to do a little deer hunting so I thought I would try the crappie again before I left. I also got to see the parade. What parade you ask?????emoScratch The parade of bass boats pre fishing for the up and coming Tx. Boy, was there a lot of folks out today.emoEek I thought with it being the middle of the week it would be slow. Was I ever wrong and did the wind blow today or what!!!! I did manage about 35 to 40 crappie, about 10 bream, and about 5 spots. All on minners and today they ran small. I brought home only 12 slabs out of the whole bunch. Lots of fun to catch however the wind made it hard to fish and tell when I had a hit. I was doing the same as last weekend but I also went up into Savanah and used a bobber on some stumps and docks in shallow. I fished from 3 feet all the way to 25 feet but the deepest I caught any was about 12 feet and I did manage several in about three feet but they were smaller and had only one keeper at the depth. Saw a lot of guys on the CFF and talked to a lot of the guys visiting. No one seemed to have anything good to say. Must have been a tough bite for most. Keep your lines wet and see you all next week.emoBigsmile Jmax

Way to go, Jmax. With all the short crappie that we have been catching lately, there promises to be a boon year coming in about 2 years.emoGeezer
 
Thanks for the excellent crappie report Jmax. You have me excited again about trying for crappie. Have a great hunting trip.

Yup, good report Jmax, stay safe. I agree with David, you've got me wanting to go fish for the crappie and troll some in the channels. I think I'll give it a try this weekend since it looks like Bass fishing is gonna be a little too popular....
 
FF I may be out trolling Saturday myself...but if there is a huge amount of boat traffic whizzing by I may just chase smallmouth below the Dam. What's the BFL traffic report for Saturday morning?
 
The field will be narrowed down to 6 boats for the BFL on Saturday, so dont sweat it! I want a good deer story when you get back Jmax!
