Posting here looking to revive some old threads about Big Creek Lake in Mobile County, AL. I fish there often but don't really see many crappie fishermen when I am on the water. I understand most guys are tight lipped about the lake. I am not looking for information about your "spots", but would like to see pics and know what others are catching. I'll be posting here often with reports. These are from Saturday morning. 35 keepers.

Wow! Nice catch. Thanks for sharing the fishing info and picture.
Thanks for posting!!!! Nice looking mess of fish!
Boy howdey, that looks nice. I haven't seen catching much over here in shepherds lake and around this way.
My bro in law came in town and wanted me to take him to catch a few crappie. My dad joined us. We kept these 41 and released a half dozen or so that were around 9 inches. Most of these were 11-13 inches with the biggest one measuring 14 1/2. Most of these came off the same structure as the ones I posted from last Saturday. We have caught over 300 off this one brush pile over the last 2 months. It just keeps replenishing itself. Only about 10 of the 300 were under the legal 9inch limit.
I have always wondered how quickly crappie can find new structure. We put out new structure 5 days ago and we fished it for the first time today. We caught 12 off of it. I can't believe they have found it already!
Hard to beat a day like today fishing with family and beautiful weather....thank you God!

Nice mess of crappie
Boy howdey y'all have BCL s number :ThumbsUp
Man those are beautiful crappie- makes our BC look like a different species! Way to go and thanks for making the effort to post,
I used to live near the lake and fished there often with good results but the last three or four years have not had any success. If you don't mind, how deep was the structure and how deep were you fishing? Minnows or jig's? that is a very good catch and nice size. Most of the fish I used to catch were 9-10" and had to go through a bunch of short fish.
Nice mess of fish. That's the lake I fished growing up. Brings back memories.
