Crappie night stalk 20 august

I hope everyone is well. I finally got out on the water. Been a long time. Was surprised at how few were out Saturday night. The weather was perfect. Slight breeze felt great
I run up in Crowders to the second power lines. The bite wasnt bad, It was just weird. I anchored in 23’ near a cut. Plenty of bait just not many fish. I never caught a single perch.
I ended up with around 40 crappie but only had 12 that were over 8” and only 2 over 12”.
Like I said the bite wasn’t bad just not much quality.
I seen several people anchored under the Buster Boyd bridge. I didn’t want to bother them fishing but I think the bite would have been better out in the open water.
Plan on going back I might run up to Catawba creek next time.

Glad to hear that your back out on the water. Thank you for your report.

Hope you do get out again soon. Glad you had it by yourself. Last time I went to Crowders it was busy with traffic. I had the grandkids with me, and they had a blast with the smaller crappies biting good. Thanks for the report and good luck next time out.
