LAKE OCONEE FRIDAY 3/16/18 (VIDEO)

Jim and I fished Lake Oconee yesterday. We were accompanied by another friend named Stan. Stan is an avid fisherman and was a pleasure to have on board. We had not fished since 3/5 so we went to the spot we last fished hoping the fish were still in the area. They were. The water was 53-55 degrees which is about 8-10 degrees cooler than when we last fished. We found some fish deep in the channel and also some fish in 14-18 FOW. We caught the most fish on double 1/16's fished with dark colors. Jim was fishing a 1/16 jig about 20 inches below a 3/4 oz trolling sinker. The bite was steady all day and we finished the day with 31 crappie between 11-13.5 inches in length. It was a great day and I think Stan had a good time and he left with a fine mess of fish. It was good to see Countrytime on the water and he was having a great day also. Enjoy the video.

Yeah but they weren't there long. After the guide came through they all took off after him. It was funny. A couple of them got right in your hole. Like I've always said the easiest way to find fish is to find fishermen.
