So teach me a little about fall crappie fishing in Southern Indiana. I usually start deer hunting in October and have never really focused on fall fishing. I've read articles and books about it but you just get mixed messages. Some say it's as good as spring, they go shallow, they go deep, hard to find, they're putting the feed bag on.

So which is it?
When does the fall pattern generally start in Southern Indiana?
I'm usually fishing for black crappie in 10 - 500 acre lakes?
