both the temperature and the fishing. Water temps today were 65 degrees and the fishing was on fire. I've posted it a couple other times, but it bears repeating, the crappie are really fighting aggressively for some reason. I'd rather catch 20 of these than 50 of the usual that just surf across the surface to the boat. It's 2x the fun. Anyhow, fished around the islands area today across the channel from Brown's Creek and limited out. Lost a couple fish and threw one back, but ended up right at 30. Fishing was on fire early, then slowed down when the water started to whitecap, then picked back up a couple hours later when the wind laid down.
Far and away the most productive color has been black/hot pink for me. I've got both "inside" rods rigged with black/pink and they have been outcatching all the other colors and the other rods 3:1. I've never had the inside rods be as productive as any others, but to be MORE productive is astounding. Caught some on Blue Ice and on Bloody Shad color, but black/pink is my moneymaker right now. Used them on both 1/16 and 1/32 heads, both of which caught about the same number of fish. Out of 30 fish, there were 10 females (full of eggs) and 2 blacks. Biggest 3 fish were 1 black and 2 whites at 15". My understanding is there is an FLW bass tournament starting tomorrow, probably be boats everywhere for the next few days. Several were on the water today.

Glad to hear that the fish are starting to bite good again. Going tomorrow to the Coosa, hope to catch a mess to eat.

Very nice, congrats
Nice fish!
I read there will be 300 anglers trying to win $40000 this weekend. Add the normal crowd and the spectators and it should be a crazy weekend on Guntersville.

Good day on the water and great catch. I have been hearing that we could have a lot of bad weather this weekend,everybody be careful.
When nothing is going right, Just go fishing.

I knew the fish were not done. I said a couple weeks ago that I thought this upcoming weekend would be one of the best to find them, it looks like I might be right. The bad part is I wont be able to go again until the following weekend. Those fish have been in that area. The only day I got to fish it was very productive for what little time me and Bob were on the water.
Fine catch .It would appear the white crappies are not done but the black ones are based on your catch having only 1 black male in the bunch and all the others are whites.I have always heard the black crappie spawns 2 to 3 weeks earlier than the white , this may be true this year.Guess that one was a late bloomer.
Or just still in the area feeding. I caught a limit of big blacks in one spot in two hours two weeks ago, all males, all guards. The next week there was still some around feeding themselves, all throughout the area on their way out. It took all day to get the limit.
