    Default finding crappie


    we have a small lake at work,were i use to be able to catch a lot of big crappie,but they raised the water level a foot and it seems all i can find are hand size or smaller.everyone said that the people off 65th and arch st. are sneakin in and fishing it out . but they are on the bank,so i dont believe that. any ideals ?

    it's probably got over populated with the crappie.

    You must be fishing at Granite mtn Quarries. Heard it used to have some good fish. Is there any cover in the lake ? When did you last catch good ones ? Could be the heat or maybe it has gotten over populated.

    dont get me wrong,you can pull out a big crappie sometimes,but that wont be but once or twice a year.before it got hot i could catch a crappie about every 3rd throw.but all of them are to small .i quit fishing it for years but i could never forget how it was to jerk them slabs out one after another.

    Crappie bite twice a day. 15 minutes before I get there and 10 minutes after I leave.
