got out early on the river this morn and the temp. was 25 degrees.....water was 40 degrees.....thought we might have a tough time catching some fish...we ended up with 31 keepers...all the fish were 8 to 17 foot deep on the river ledge...all were cuaght on grubs ...blue shad.....black/blue chart. tail.....the fish were biting real good until the current shut off and the wind started blowing pretty hard
 
Hey sm7mag, what part of Hiawasse river do you fish? We put in at charleston ramp all the time. Crappie fishing has been slow to none for me. Any help would be appreciated. THANKS
 
I put in at BandB today and it was slow for me too_Only got to fish about 2 hours,but I had to go. I only had one short crappie. I had some other bites but no hook ups. Caught the one on a white hair jig, and had several bites on a char. and red grub until I got hung up and lost it.
 
not to give any specifics.....but 99% of the crappie i catch thru-out the winter is between price creek up river and dead horse down river
 
yes...dead horse is below the bridge approx.. 2 miles down river......it is the second slough on the left side of the river after you go past the powerlines
