Hey, Rodney here. I am new to the site, but love to crappie fish. But, I have always limited my crappie fishing to the spring. Can't wait to try some of the advice I have already read here for summertime crappie fishing. I do most of my fishing on Cordell Hull lake north of Cookeville, TN. I plan to go tomorrow morning with my son and cast jigs and try out trolling. I will report on how well (or poorly) we do. Anyone know if Cordell Hull Lake is muddy right now or how to find out? We have had some rain lately and it is raining right now. Oh well, look forward to being a part of the community.
