    Default Silver lake


    Crappie are biting! Just not on crappie jigs. Caught on a craw while bass fishing.
    Fyi the green sunfish, (rockbass, warmouth, etc) are shallow and hungry. Find grass and rocks.
    Water temp on arrival 77°, departure 84°. Clarity chocolate milk.

    Some like to jug fish in the creek. Supposedly theirs a few holes up their. Can't bring myself to run through the shallow water north of the chute to get in​ the creek.
    FYI, if your north of the interstate, by an island, do NOT try to run between the island and what appears to be a point to the east. That was a peninsula. Good odds you'll bottom out. Theirs a few stumps their also. Watched a guy do it last week. That engine bounced real good!
    I've asked for buoys to be put their. That was a year ago.

    If you have​ decent electronics, there's alot of "brushpiles" that people have sunk.
