pleny of shad for sure just not very many crappie in there this year worst year ive ever seen in 15 yrs , needs to get allot colder and stay that way for a while and still not sure thats going to help, there are plces that i have fished over the years that the crappie for what ever reason just quit using, hope this is not the case, only time will tell, ive only caught a few limits there this year, 10-15 is about as good as i have done in last few trips and most anglers are going home empty handed, hopefully when water temps get into the thirties the fish will make a move if not its going to be a long winter in the pool!
