Taylorsville 12/2 & 12/3 report

I was finally able to get back on the water on Saturday and Sunday. I spent way to much time the last 2 months chasing deer around the woods. But now l have my freezer full I can get back to the important thing in life.( Crappie fishing)

I could not have timed it any better the weather was perfect both days highs in the upper 50’s and no wind. That’s hard to beat for December.
Hit the water a little before 8 on Saturday water temperature was 50 and had just a little bit of tint to it. I thought it was going to be a banner day. I ended up with a limit but had to work for them.
I didn’t have much time to fish Sunday but I had to go and try them again. I fished from 8-1130 and ended up 2 short of a limit.
All fish was caught casting jigs in 15 fow or more and they wanted it just barely moving. The fish was deeper than I expected them to be. Most was deeper than 10’ deep. Some of them thumped it really hard but quite a few I never felt a thing it just got heavy.
It sure felt good being back on the water.

That's exactly what we encountered down in Tenn ... as far as a few thumping the jig, while others just seemed to grab it and sit still ("just got heavy").

When we used to fish Taylorsville in Nov (cold/windy enough for heavy clothing), back when we tight lined minnows ... there wasn't a "hit" (rod tip bounce, then pulled down) as much as there was simply the line moving off to one side. Then in later years, casting jigs from the bank over a downed tree, in Dec & Jan, we got the same "thump" we were used to in much warmer water.
:dono ... just goes to show that them Crappies can be finicky, tricky, or just plain ornery when they want to be. :bash

Price catch both days and glad you got back on the water. I can't wait to get back to fishing

And they have been all three of those this year for me anyway.
