Nice crappies
Almost all of the usable ramps have issues at brookville have
Issues at winter pool. At quakertown last week a few guys dropped
their trailers off the end. The docks and rocks suck at bonwell. And I have
Seen a few 4x4's that needed snorkels at Fairfield.
Good luck
Fished Brookville Thursday 3/9 Spider rigging 12 ft up to 8 ft took a limit in about 4 hours and threw back some smalls but not many. Bite was Kinda lite any color jig and minnow combination seemed to work 1/16 - 1/32 and plain minnows also. Larger curly tail type jigs have not seemed to work for me yet. Seemed to be relating to breaks in depth and submerged structure. Had a guy fishing near me using cork and minnows doing VERY WELL also,he was fishing submerged brush right of the bank in about 8-10 ft. Water temp was measured as high as 52 degrees.Bite was good until wind picked up about 1:00 and boat control became an issue.Speed varied average about .3 Gonna pull the trigger on a new Terrova or Ulterra trolling motor so I can get better control of boat and trolling speed. This twelve volt motor just doesn't hold up to much wind.

No Dave the lake rose 2 feet after the rain we had and they lowered it a few days later.
They usually don't close the gates on the dam till April 15th.
Looks like a good day
Attachment 261270Found some dandys today Fish were in 12 - 15 ft and near submerged brush or near the bottom. Spider rigging double 1/32 OZ and 1/16 0z tipped with minnows. Water temp dropped to 40 - 42. Plain 1/32 oz chartreuse jigs tipped with minnows were best. No dinks yet this year!
Nice job!
