Right now - 30 to 35 FOW is deep. I prefer to fish in the transitional area - don't like to fish beds. Bigger & better fish in the 17" area. Wherever the bugs are hatching is where I want to fish. Custom tyed jigs are critical.
Thanks for the good info and for all your excellent posts. You have got this old crappie fisherman excited about the possibilities of bream fishing again.
