I'll be heading down in a couple weeks (first time this early) to fish little lake George area as we've only been coming a couple of years and then March-May time frame. I've had good brim and cracker luck mid April so I hope to get a few crappie as well . Good luck and if you see a blue tracker175 tf from Ohio give me a shout ,love the area as it's only 1 1/2 hrs from our daughter and family .
