Getting back into crappie fishing

Hey all! I’ve been a Crappie.com member for 15+ years since back on active duty in the Air Force and fishing Louisiana and Nebraska, but got away from crappie fishing and the forum for a few years and concentrated more on saltwater since I retired here to Fl. I’m trying to get back into crappie fishing and learning lakes and techniques for here in east central FL. I’m closest to Lakes Washington and Poinsett, but close enough for day trips to Stick Marsh, Garcia and Headwaters. I’ve fished Okeechobee a couple of times but that makes for a long day trip or an overnight/ weekend stay. Would like to meet up with some of you that fish locally. I’ve got an 18’ Tracker Pro w/ a 90 hp for freshwater. I am also willing to swap trips for offshore out of Sebastian on my 23’ Proline.
Thanks!

Welcome back.

Lake Washington can be really great drifting the lake with minnows. Fishing the deep bends of middle river between Lake Poinsett and Lake Winder is a good bet. Flooded timber south of Camp Holly can be a good bet also. Tight Lines.
