I fish out of the Tompkins bend area as well but never for Crappie. I'm starting to get into crappie this year. You guys got any pointers for crappie fishing in deep and clear water? You mainly using minnows or jigs?

I guess this is my 2nd year for the Crappie. I have mainly been a Bream guy. The crappie that I have been catching are mainly in some of the coves between Joplin and Tompkins Bend on the Marina side. I have found several brush piles and " Game and Fish Commission Fish Attractants" in this area ( thanks to the new fish finder). Using minnows and fishing 6 pound clear line on an ultra lite rig with a clear bobber or no bobber at all. The bobber is because I have found that my boat tends to reflect in the clear water and kinda spooks the fish. Normally in 15 to 20 feet of water fishing 10 to 12 feet. Hope this helps.

I fish the big Q and launch out of the state park, sure could use some coordinates for crappie and bream.
