    Default Harris 10/16 in the PM


    Hey guys, first time poster long time lurker here. This will be my first full crappie season here in NC so I'm still learning

    I got to Harris around 2pm looking to catch some crappie / perch on my new fenwick 7' ultralight. Landed once perch then this:

    The bite really picked up around 4pm through sunset and seems the crappie are very deep, something I didn't realize till the trip was over. I had read this time of year the crappie move to the shallow but a nice angler at the boat ramp mentioned he caught 25 crappie the day before all in 20-25' of water. Landed about 20 perch in the 12-15' range but none of them were cleaning size and 1 very nice crappie:

    I'll be out again Sunday morning looking in the 20' range for crappie,

    Welcome to the site and thanks for a great first post / report. I know a little bit about Harris Lake and you will find it to be quite the great little fishing spot. What did you do with the big green carp?

    Gave him a kiss and made sure he swam away under his own power

    I think you can find them shallow too, I caught them in 10' the other day.
