How did you fish for them? Never fished Bay Springs for Crappie. but did fish it years ago for crappie. Sure wish they were in the standing timber there like they are in Sardis .

found them staging outside of the coves on laydown trees suspended in 8ft of water .fished the coves real hard and never caught a fish.all the crappie we caught was on jigs.the water was 14 to 18 ft. deep where we was fishing
