Put in at scotts creek. Lake is 1.5 ft over winter pool 56 deg clear water. Went looking for black crappie suspended under bait with side imaging. Wish I could show yall some pics from the sonar, found the motherload in the perfect spot but friend could only coax one real nice slab into biting and lost him at top of water, big crappie. Found loads of shad and fish below them in trees lining the creek channel at the mouth of major creek where channel swings by point in creek mouth. Channel swings right by a point and it was loaded, a huge laydown had fell on the channel drop too and all the trees were loaded with fish about 10-20 ft down in 25-35 ft. We got there late and id say high sun may have put em off but that spot and another exactly like it were choc full of fish. Fished both spots with minnows and jigs, only fish came 5 ft down in 28 ft. on brush but it was a dandy, too bad he slowly flopped off, seemed really lethargic. Sometimes the fish wold move out of trees over creek channel and wear out shad on the sonar and we couldnt buy a bite. Any suggestions on my epic fail.....Figured it would be a stress reliever from deer woods and now im flustered. Wanna go back and try those fish again real early or late.
