Prairie Creek arm, Blackburn arm and Monte-NE are all good places to find crappie. This time of year they hang close to brush piles near creek channels. On warmer days they suspend above the brush piles or under blown down trees and can be caught with a jig under a float 4 to 6 feet deep. If they are holding tight to the brush a jig fished along the pile will work best. I target piles in the mid lake area 15 to 35 feet deep.
