5/04/11 Lake Erling high water fish

Water is high about 1 ft above spillway very muddy in certain spots temp was 46deg. this morning when buddy and I left the camp water surface temp 72deg. wind was light checked out tops in 10 to 14ft water they all had fish but they were all dinks about 9 oclock tied on cork went to the cypress trees that have been out of water until recently fished in 3ft water with cork about 14 in deep found a few fish white/silver/chart meatgetter jigs lost a lot but managed to get back to camp with 24 fish a good day considering I thought I was wasting my time with all the high water.

Good job noslab.

Impressive. My crappie holes are currently all over the countryside on farms and in folk's houses. Way to go - great to see a pic of a nice mess! Hope y'all catch even more in the next several days!

No eggs in any of the females most of the fish were males.

That is just what I am looking for noslab. Great catch! And, by the way, I got a pretty good feeling that Buddy would want you to share those meatgetter jigs that ms meatgetter is sending you with me. LOL.
