Went out late this morning with my brother and his friend Ken. We went up the main channel to Crowder creek. Several boats were in there pre fishing for the Crappie USA Tournament. Talked to a couple guys as they passed by, they were not doing much catching. Mostly perch and occasional crappie is all I saw. We managed several good crappies and a few good size perch mostly due us slow trolling .6-.8. Everyone else seemed to be flying by longlining. Weather held out for us, only windy and chilly. Water temp dropped a few degrees it was 65.8 at one time that I remember. Total for Ken to clean was 8 crappies 10-13 inches and 7 big white perch. Hope to get back out later this weekend. May go to Fishing creek if I can in the evenings. Great day for just being out and fishing. :highfive
