I have been doing quite a few searches for Lake Talquin but May does not seem to be a popular month for threads about crappie. On may 14th we are staying at Coe Landing for the weekend.

My wife and I have been mostly saltwater fishing, but a lot of it. A couple recent trips to Lake Okeechobee and getting into a hot bluegill and crappie bite have convinced us to put together a jon boat with a spider rig on the front.

I have heard of people fishing the Iron Curtain out from Coe. Also read a lot here to stay at idle and look for submerged stumps in that area.

I have read that the crappie are moving into the shallow areas and into the creeks right now, but with no local knowledge would love to know more what that means? Any knowledge about fishing Lake Talquin in mid May would be great. We like to catch just enough for a couple dinners. Not looking to pack my live well.

Thank you
Dave
