Past coupple trips to Fall Lake

I think I've been behind on my posting. I have made a couple mini trips to Falls Lake. Last Sunday Afternoon and Yesterday afternoon. Only a few hours a piece. Last Sunday was tough. I was fishing lay downs and Brush and it took most of the trip to find a few. Finally found some though off a lay down in 13' of water say 7'. Caught Six that were keeper, then it was time to head home.

Yesterday I had a couple hrs to sneak away while Mrs. Redboat and Daughter went to a birthday party. This time I went to the upper part of the lake and fished under a bridge in the shade. Managed 8 keepers all 10-11'. fishing approx 11' vertical jigging 1 pole/1 jig right next to the pilings. No skiers in that part of the lake and I was in the shade!

I may go back after work one day this week and see if I can find some around the stumps and such along the river channel.. Another month or so it will be Eno river time!

You fishing under the bridge at Cheek Rd or Hwy 50??

I launched at Hickory Hill and fished under Cheek road. I drove over hwy 50 on the way home and it was a zoo over there.

Are the Fall's crappie moving up in the creek's early this year? The Kerr Lake crappies seem to be a little ahead of schedule.

I fished up the Flat for a couple of miles and the Neuse down to the sharpe bend last Thursday with no luck on crappie!!

Nice report

Thanks for the report REDBOAT!

Good report....glad you found and got on some

Any update on that gator that's been eating up all the crappie on Falls Lake ?

Haha. I am not worried about it. Maybe it will help with the perch population.
