From the report Jerry gave me over the phone, it sounds like the crappie are starting to move into the creek arms, still relatively deep though. I guess as full of eggs and milt as they are and them staging in the deep tops in the creek arms, we could call it PRE-prespawn, lol. No matter what you call it, it sounds like they are very anxious to do the deed. Of course, surface water temp may fluctuate a degree or two between morning and afternoon, but the first real increase in water temp we have, the males are going to be running into the shallows. Kinda like an advanced party for reconnaissance.
