Fished the Crowder and Rock Creek for a while Saturday and caught 5 about 16" deep just off bank , all males , largest was 1.65 lbs, 2 had darkened up. Also caught a 1.97 lb female sandy about 6 in deep that was fun!
They say they have been biting better in the evenings and early morning, I was there mid day!

1/8oz Yellow Maribiou Jig , and/or minnows. The yellow jig tipped with a minnow was good a week before and was getting them pretty good at 8-10' deep.

A friend has been stopping at the culvert across from the ball park in Crowder after work and getting 15-20, 3 nights last week.

The bite at Mill Creek and Coal Creek should be heating up with the warm weather this week.

Go get'um boy's and girls!
