DANG, BRUH .... nice Dead Sea Crappies. :biggrin
Buddy of mine has been fishing up around the corner from Kings Mill & casting off his bro's dock, catching huge White Bass & Hybrids. Did you get yours up in the river half of the lake or down towards the Kennedy Bridge / Dam portion of the lake ?
I put in at Bryant’s, ran up and fished from Kings Mill to the Island. I bet we caught over 20 largemouth fishing with minnows! Lol. Sure wish I could get on some numbers down there! Always good quality fish but never catch more than 1 on a tree, Very scattered
Small numbers , but quality crappie
I took the wife and kids (5 and 2) out to "The Dead Sea" yesterday evening for a few hours. First couple spots, which looked like dandy's, turned up nothing. About an hour before dark, I ran down to my favorite brush pile (undisclosed location ��) and instantly started pulling out slabs. 8 in total off a single pile. Almost unheard of down there. All were females and full of eggs. Smallest was 11 inches and biggest was around 13. She was so fat, she wouldn't fit in my crappie checker! Can't get pictures to load. Last couple trips, I can barely buy a bite off a minnow by itself. Mayfly and red/black jigs tipped with a minnow or a crappie nibble have been the ticket for me. Kids had a blast boat riding and playing with the minnows. Gotta get back out when I knock a few things off the honey do list.
