We always see bank fishing going on just inside the triangle by Hwy 9A bridge where large rocks are located. When the water was down, there's an area just South of there that exposed a sandy beach area that was accessible by land. Now the water is up, that area is submerged (but not deep enough to take a boat over it).

I've fished the bridge piers and rip rap many times in that area. Never heard it called the "triangle" but it makes sense.

It seems a little early for the triangle I would try around the islands at crowder or make a boat trip down coal creek

Coal creek is what I've been talking for weeks now.

Did you take the creek all the way back to the next highway bridge nip?

Started this morning at 8am and closed the LW lids at 1:10pm with a limit of 37. Fished natural banks today on the south end of the lake. Early while it was cloudy they were shallow in 2'-4' DOW. When the sun burned the clouds off they moved deeper to 5'-7' and also caught some staging fish in 9'-11' on top of piles. Was a great day catching over 75 crappie. Technique was double dipping jigs, 2 rods in hand, 2 3/16oz Timmy Toms Weedless on each, and Mikes Custom Baits in Blk/Chartreuse, Pumpkin/Chartreuse, and Orange\Chartreuse. Fish slow and into the wind to keep your line vertical. Great Day On Eufaula and it's only going to get better......Ranger

Great report Mark!

Mark, come drink, I mean fish with us Saturday at the dock. I'll show you how to fish with minnows and you can show me how to fish with jigs :Rofl

Glad to hear the good news of limiting out. But starting at 8am? That's way early for me!

Yup. Pretty much just holdin the bait still waiting for the strike. Soon though it won't matter. I've killed them in the past during spawn with a fast retrieve.
