It’s every crappie angler’s worst nightmare. A high pressure system moves in after a great bite with falling pressure. You go from catching them to just praying for a bite.

Had three nice days fishing Lake Crescent. Caught some really nice fish. Third day ending fishing the the Florida Crappie Club Classic. Wife and I managed to pull out a second place and 1st place for Big Fish.

Waited till fog rolled off the water the picked up buddy and off to beat our heads against the wall. We ended with 15 nice fish, they still have lock jaw. We had fish stacked 10-23 foot and could only pick off the fifteen, tough out there.

Jeff and I did a little rigging with minnows yesterday. Fun day was had but the whites kept our lines away from the crappie quite often. Moved around a bit and found more crappie closer to the submerged wood but the whites still located us
