Kayak Trip Report, Piney Creek
I made a short trip to the North end of Limestone Bay this morning fish around Piney Creek. I tried looking around for Gill and Shellcracker beds only finding a few scattered fish here and there with no real size to them. I stopped at a laydown in about three feet of water and pulled 43 Crappie, one after another off of it. I've never seen that many fish on a single laydown before in shallow water, all were Black Crappie and all were about 12 inches. I also released a Channel cat that was about 8 pounds that grabbed my little spinner. All fish were release for another day. Great morning!
The water was clear and 70 degrees at daylight. The Crappie came off an Electric Chicken colored Bobby Garland Itty Bit on a 1/32oz jig head that I was single pole jigging on isolated cover.

That was the treetop of all trees. I've found bass in one like that once on Wheeler. Seldom like that though.

Looks like you finally got the freezer caught back up to release all of those. So it is true there are black crappie in Limestone Bay. Never seen one.

Dicthbasser I used to catch them like that when I was a kid but it's be a long time since I caught that many on one lay down. Congrats on a great day

catchNgrease,
I normally catch about 50/50 Black Crappie to White Crappie. Not sure why, but the Black Crappie percentage has increased to closer to 90 percent of my fish this year. Looks like the Black Crappie had a much better spawn a couple years ago. I'm not sure if that hold true for most of Lake Wheeler though.

I found a laydown like that once on a power plant lake ..... next time I went there they had put the area off limits because it was "too close" to the power plant inlet ..... Dang terrorist messing up my fishing too!!
