Sherman reservoir crappie tournament is May 11th… I’ll be there, anyone else?
I'll do my best to make it. Would make for a nice birthday gift to treat myself going out to Sherman.
what's the best crappie lake in ne, sherman?
Well, “best” I think is kinda all relative…Sherman is the only place that has a (open water) crappie only tournament. All other crappie only tournaments in NE are during ice!Quote:

So yeh, it’s a pretty consistent producer of nice sized crappie, I personally can’t say it’s the “best”, but darn good.
Didn't know anything about it but like Chris said, "would make for a nice birthday gift" to myself also! Sounds like fun I like tourney fishing.
