Thread: Missy Report

Got out this morning for a few hours, did OK. Water was clear for missy and right at 62*. Kept 12 that were all around the 12" mark and threw probably 8 back along with some small Lg mouth's. Mainly blacks with only a few whites, eggs ready to pop. A lot of boats out on the hunt. Weather looks good this week, hope to get on later in the week.

You did better then me. Went today and shore fished several spots up and down the resi and caught 5 small crappie, 1 bluegill and a couple bass. Not sure what to think on the spawn, i would have thought the bite would have been better today with the warm temps. 2 weeks ago was getting good fish up close, not so anymore. Going to try tuesday, more warm temps until then. Should answer my questions.

I got out for a couple hours and did about the exact same as you colt. Not sure what to think myself.

weather has been so up and down that it won't be,long and they will be absorbing the eggs

I fished Saturday evening by Pearson mill area caught 17 keepers 10 to 12 inches both black and whites fishing a chartreuse jig a foot deep around the edges. I think the bite will get better by the day especially with the warmer nights this week should be on fire.

Took my 10 year old son over this evening and fished by the dam on the resi side. Did better. Was not fast and furious but we ended up with 15 crappie and 5 nice gills. Biggest crappie was 13 inches and we had 4 that size. Caught all the big ones casting and slowly retrieving a black/chart tube jig. Bite was very light couldnt even hardly feel it, the line would just get tight like a snag. 3 females and one dark male made up the big fish. All whites. Also caught some smaller blacks that still had eggs as well. Probably the strangest part of the night was my son catching 6 crappie on half a red worm while fishing for gills. Only managed 2 on minnows. We caught quite a few bluegill, and missed a lot as well as i was trying to run 2 poles. These were 2 of the bigger crappie

Nice job colt! That's a big smile on his face. Won't be long until he will be giving fishing reports.

good job guys!
