I have posted some info the last week in others threads, but this ones dedicated to just my report.
Fished this afternoon before the storms. Got set up about 1pm. Fished till 2pm and had 5 good fish before the wind came hard. Moved into swan basin to avoid the wind and fished there from about 2:30 to 3:45 and had 3 more. Moved back thinking the wind had laid some and got into the fish almost immediately. The rain that came for nearly an hour actually turned them on. Fished from just after 4pm, to just before 6 and the wind came very hard again!
Ended up with 32 crappie between 3/4 to 1 1/4lbs. most were right around 1lb. Got those fish in 4 hours, the first 2 hours produced 8 fish, the last 2, and not quite a full 2 produced the other 24. Missed alot and dropped a few back in the lake. Hard to get them in the boat sometimes fishing 3ft deep.
Slow trolled jigs tipped with a minnow, and some minnow only rigs about 3ft over 6ft of water. That has seemed to produce well this week. Dont know about other locations and depths for sure right now. Seems like the last of the crappie are moving in. Alot of the females the last few days have been about half or less full of eggs. Males still black for the most part. I would think up to the full moon should be good, and then a few weeks after that will be slow.
Still catching catfish with the crappie, and saw people juggin and yo-yo'in doing pretty good on the cats. Hope this helps yall. Will be at least a few days before I can head out again!
