    Default Still not studying, but I got another crappie report!


    Went out solo this morning to Newnans Lake. I usually drive right past it to go to Lochloosa, but since I caught my share there yesterday I figured I'd see what Newnans was up to.

    Fished from 8am-11. Didn't keep a single fish but by 11 the counter read 60. Trolled fast in 5-9 feet of water and man was it a workout for one person with 8 rods. Before I could get all my rods out this morning I boated a solid 2lber to start the day off and ended with a total of 3 fish that went 2lbs. Didn't keep a single fish today. The overall quality of fish today was much better than what I caught at Lochloosa yesterday. Last time I fished Newnans was last November of 2014 and I remember all the fish being dinks.

    Lake was kind of nasty. Top of the water had a bad green color from algae or whatever. There was also a lot of floating "trash" across the lake. Seems to be the story on most lakes right now.

    A lot of guys were spider rigging. They seemed to be doing ok....I'll stick with longlining lol

    1.3-1.7mph I was surprised at how many fish I caught as shallow as 5 feet.
