Southeast crappie

Headed back to Lake Village again for a quick trip. A few crappie were still around the cypress. Slow but managed a few. The last 2 years, the crappie on the south end of Chicot seem to like the jig bounced off the bottom. Don't know why they like it this way thought crappie are suppose to look up. Just hop it on the bottom and they hit it. Tried slow falling and just jigging. Didn't want it as much.:scratchhead This method also catches the attention of some nice fillet size catfish. Catching catfish on jigs gives a good thump too. Ended up with a good mess for a quick trip.

Man yeah that'll do for a day of fishing! Way to catch em!

Nice mess of fish. :)

Sweet!!!

Love lake Chico !!! Thanks for the post

Man, nice mess. Cant beat that!

Hey Kenneth. Nice looking sink. Thanks for the catching fish tip.

Nice Haul!!! Looks like you had a blast!!!!

Nothing wrong with that haul!:highfive Lots of times up on Nimrod I drop to the bottom and pick up jig a few inches in pallet stakebeds. Crappie don't always hold up in or over cover IMO. Especially on high pressure days or behind cold fronts I find them tight to the bottom. Never think there is set rules on depth on any fishing.

Look like a good fish trip to me
