Just wanted to see everyone's input on how this cooler weather will affect the crappie. I assume it will help the bite. How long do you think it will take to sink in? Does a cold front in the fall make them tight lipped like in the spring?

the bite will get better as the water get cooler for sure . these little early fall fronts does not effect them as bad as a spring front or atleast no for as long!!!!!!!!!!!

Cooler weather certainly makes me bite better!!! I always gain weight in the winter months!!! Lol

Fish are likely to start fall patterns if this cool weather holds. Definitely better on fishermen. Shad start pulling into creeks and bays as water cools and fish will follow.
Watch Crappie Pro's posts. I thnk he keeps a GPS on them crappie in the fall!

In my expert opinion, I think it could help, then again, it may hurt.
(this works for the politicians, I thougt I would try it here)
Me too BRM. Problem is I don't lose the weight during the warmer months.Quote:

It will dang sure make it easier for us to chase them all day. However, I don't think it will have much effect on the bite until it's cool enough, long enough to cool the water down. Can't wait for the water to get into the low 50s and move them deep on Ouachita :fish.
We were just down at Ouachita. Thought about fishing it, but when I went by, it looked deep and clear so I figured it had no crappie in it.:biggrinQuote:
