Crappie action in your area?

birdman · 05-12-2008

Just curious if any of you guys have been doing any good catching them slabs. Water temp in our area is just getting to the low side of spawn temperatures. From local reports, it sounds like things are starting to heat up a bit.

We been catching them in Nebraska for about 2 weeks now. Most are being caught in 1-3' FOW.

Damn nice fish fry fixins there eye..... What was the method of take? They must be holding pretty darn close to shore with that depth.

We didn't go Crappie fishing on the Canton trip but we hear they were biting like crazy in the same depth.

I was casting jigs and dipping jigs in structure with long poles.
