Thread: Black Warrior River Crappie Fishing

Welcome, I don't fish the black warrior but it's fixing to get good every were. Black and chartreuse will catch fish anywhere that's a good color to start with when you find some fish then you can try different colors. When the water gets to 60 they should be on the banks. Good luck!

Contact me. I fish there exclusively. There is a crappie fishing club located there also which I am a member of. We hold a once monthly tournament. Consider joining us its a great way to gain valuable info. Send me your number via PM and I'll contact you if your interested.

As for tips. You got to get way deeper than 3 feet right now. I use minnows.

Thanks for the input. I'm trying to learn jigs, I know that live bait is always the best bait though. I've always fished for bream and cats with my dad using crickets. I've been trying to take up bass fishing and this year I'm going to have more time off during the spring so I wanted to give jigging a try. I've only been to G's a few times, my dad grew up about 15 minutes from there and fished it a lot when he was a kid, but has not been there in years. So I guess you could say that we are starting over from scratch.

I've never fished that area, but if there's current look for trees laying in the water that block the current. Crappie won't set in the current, but will dash out from a current break to grab bait as it passes by.

Take everything Dicthbasser says and soak it in he is a great fisherman.
