Yall crappie pros recommend starting there or should I try shallow? No idea what the fish are doing out there. If it were u. Where would you start. Thanks.

    I would start on the piles. Haven't heard of a very good report lately.

    Havent been out there all year. If lake is low then its about how it used to be before they raised the level. With water at full stage it becomes so hard to find the fish what with all the structure on the bank. Gettin to em becomes the real problem with all the brush

    Hard lake to fish when it's up. Only place I've found 'em is on those brush piles out in lake. If the tops are visible, that's great. If not, hard to find. I just 'stroll' around the tops till I find the exact spot, then I fish the heck out of that spot. They always seemed to turn on for a while, off for a while, so sometimes if you leave a top and come back later, it produces again. Trouble is, the lake is small and there are usually 100 boats and 100 tops!!! So you can't move for fear of losing it. I've talked to folks that caught 'em when nothing else works there, by trolling very slow in middle.

    Thanks Greg. I know some deep brush out there that will prolly be good. Lake is low but looks awesome. Reminds me of the old days before they raised the level. Wind was terrible so i never even launched the boat. Hit the cadron at shaw bridge. Never got a darn bite. But i got to enjoy a couple hours on the water with my gf and one of my duck dogs. My pup was waitin on that thump but it never came
