caught 20 this am vertical jigging. 5 were 12 or 13 " rest were 10 and 11" They wanted it just hanging. If you cast you were skunked. It had to be still. You couldn't move it too slow! They were around live sycamores, The water is clear and the lure had to be out of human sight. The jig had to be a neutral color, not bright. I used microspoons ice fishing jigs. I think they were loafing, not spawning. (they were not busting with mushy roe). No hard pecks , the bite was touchy. Sometimes you saw your line go slack as they were pushing it up. Set the hook and you had him or her. Sometimes you tighten up and wonder was it a sycamore limb giving a bit or a bite? Set the hook and you could have a limb or a crappie. I love it when they're like this. This is why I had the "sensitive rod" discussion. If you're fishing Cumberland now you bettwer have one with enough backbone to pull it out of the bushes. And didn't catch any in over 15' of water. Hope this helps. fair weather
