Well that sounds like a mess. Funny you should mention windsheilds. Wow have you priced them, just a bubble windsheild , which is just a pc of plastic , 200 to 300. Thats crazy. I have been searching ebay for one for my alumacraft .When i was a kid growing up in indiahoma, you could walk boat to boat in the bottle neck at steed in late winter . what has happened to the crappie pattern . There used to be 30 boats every weekend just slaying the crappie in the bottle neck. I realize the lake is really low which makes me think that the crappie would group up at the mouth of the bottle at prespawn, not to mention the wind has been hard from the north for a month.any thouughts? has anyone fished the timber on the sw corner which is about 12ft - 14ft of water?all this timber would seem irresistable i would think but with so much wind from the north it may be a war of the wills.......
