    Was a fair number of boats out yesterday. Bites hard to get! Tried the main channel, south side, found a few crappie "stacks" , threw the book at 'em, only bites came early

    I think the pressure change yesterday had the fish with a case of lock jaw. That's the excuse I'm using anyway. Got bit early and then it died with the changing N wind.

    Thanks for the information BigOrange. Anyone else familiar with the Honeycomb area? Trying to get a feel of how to fish whether it be minnows, jigs, trolling, treetops, dock shooting, bridges, or just casting around the bank. It also appeared to me that this lake has several shallows spots in the main body. Does this cause an issue while running to spots, or is everything fairly visible? Thanks guy, I'll be on them this Friday

    I usually just try to stay in the channels when running. main river is fairly deep and not a problem. There is some floating debris as a result of the high water this past week so be on the watch for floaters out there. Fish Honeycomb every now and then all the techniques you mentioned work in there. Lot of reports from the dock shooters this past week. The long lining is starting to pick up and should only get better as we go. The bridge there is very productive at the right time. So, pretty much whatever you like doing the most you can probably catch fish doing it right now.

    Right now, daily weather seems to be the dictate of what is working.

    Went yesterday. Caught a few. Very tricky. Alignment was crucial. I had to get behind them and toss into the wind. They had pulled off where they normally were, but were close by at the edge of where the wind was blowing in. I tossed up past them at the edge of the wind line and did okay. No bites any other way, though.

    Good information never thought of this.
