Nice mess of crappie. Thanks for the update. Temps still in low 40's?

Yeah, 10-12 feet deep. Been catching a lot on rock wall between old alligator 1 and alligator 2. As you start towards two from one it's a big wall in the right.

Thanks for the info. The last time I fished there it was a little later in spring and I usually went to the left either up alligator or up wolf creek. I will have to try the wall on my next trip. If you get to go this week, I hope you catch em. Let us know how you do.

Alligator 1 still thawed out? I would like to go tomorrow but it will probably have to wait until Wednesday or Thursday.

I was told yesterday that gator1 up was frozen, should be thawed in a few day's
