I have been crappie fishing Laurel on and off the last 6-7 months. I have fished a few places around the Lake haven't caught a thing. The only place I have caught anything is at Grove Marina. I usually catch something every time I drop a minnow down beside the docks. You may catch one and it be an hour before you catch another,but I got to say no off them has been under 12 inchs.
