Right now, I think we are still in a prespawn as today, I caught a few of my fish suspended in the creek channel with it being 16-18’ deep and fish suspended in the middle of it. They still have to move up and spawn as the baitfish get ready to spawn against the banks. On the banks you have weedlines and in some of the arms and the shallow east bay, Lilly pads as they haven’t even started to grow yet. Land owners will have Aquatics Control come in once the weeds grown and spray at each home front and dock, but,they don’t spray everywhere. Once fish spawn, then you will find fish and have to cull the small ones about everywhere. I always catch my larger fish deeper tho and crankin is as deadly as it gets from now till late late fall. I used to crank a lot of limits out of Patoka in the timber and Painer Creek also. Still can scrounge a few here and there. My best in Indiana is a 17.5” out of Monroe on a row of stumps in the huge bay before you turn right going past Pine Grove and those stump rows,are still there. I am going to catch one more limit on Lemon then hit Monroe and Patoka myself. What will change everything and it’s a tossup is this above normal temps for the next week the weatherman is predicting. But no matter, the crappie are always in Lemon as it’s a good crappie lake so learn it as it as the fish cycle through the seasons and use what you learn on it when you fish other lakes. Personally, I don’t care to fight the jet skiers and pleasure boaters and sail boaters when school is out and the water warms on Lemon.
