Need info, Bank or a boat? Crappie or any fish? If a boat how big a boat? There is a lot of current near the canal right now. However that may not be a bad thing, depends what you looking for. Catfish, Bluegill, Bass, Yellow Stripes, etc.........There is alot out there for you fish for. Catfish would likely be the easiest target and they are accesable from the bank.

I would fish the coves that are south facing with wind blowing into the back of them. This is where the crappie should be actively feeding if they are up that shallow. They should be close with the water temp near 60. Catfishing should be good and flats off of the main channel should be good feeding areas.

Thanks for all the help. The crappie bite was slow, but the catfishing and bluegill fishing was pretty good. Caught several nice flatheads in the canal and channels in brushy coves(really shallow). It would have been much better had someone not cut on e trot line and stolen half the stagings which I suspect had fish on them(as they were random stagings missing). What a jerk to do something like that. I don't mean to stereotype, but I know bass fisherman brag about cutting up trotlines they get plugs hung in.
