Just got back from Norfork Lake today and man was it tuff. A couple of suggestions that I can give you are make sure you have a good lake map with all crib signs on it. {put up by the core}. All new brush piles were installed wher signs were origanally. Warning some signs have been removed by locals to help hide these locations, so pay attention to your map.Allmost all cribs are visible form boat because of clear water. I have fished there 3 years in a row and found that when it rains the fish really turn on to biting. Did this to me again in this trip. You must use real clear line. I used nt silverthread green 4lb,and gamagatsu hooks black no jig head or anything just straight minnow. Right now crappie are in 8-10 feet of water laying eggs. You must find those brush piles to catch them. Be extremely quiet when searching around for brush piles. Depending on what time im may you will probably hit it good. The fish should be back on brush piles by then. The depth we caught most of them were 12 feet down. Well good luck and hope this helps.My spelling and typing are terrible.
