Hey guys, I'm new to this site.i have been crappie fishing for about 15 years.all I fish is spider rigging in late winter early spring on wheeler.i want to try some night time fishingthis summer.had anyone on wheeler had success doing this on wheeler? Any help or advice would greatly be appreciated.
Welcome to the site, wish I could help with your question.
I wish I could help as well. I've been wanting to do the same on Wheeler but have never got a response on here from anyone who night fishes Wheeler. I've tried Second Creek on Wheeler and Shoals Creek on Wilson and didn't have any luck. Maybe someone on here will respond and help us both out.

I've never done any night fishing on the river. I have had decent luck on Cedar creek at night though.

We have had some luck fishing spring creek at night. This is really the only area we have tried. Should be able to find some other areas off the river channel when the current is not too strong.
Thanks for the welcomes guys.i can already see that this site j is going to help me alot.my uncle got me started crappie fishing and he does not think you can catch crappie in the summer or any other time except late winter early spring by spider rigging.I'm about to show him up.thanks for the info also.
When I say off the river channel, I mean on the edge of the channel. The crappie do not stop eating in the summer, they just eat at different places than in the spring. Just go where the food is! Good Luck!
Welcome to the site. I night fish Wheeler a couple of times a years. As I put in at Ditto, I fish the upper end of Wheeler. I have had some luck along the Rip Rap at the entrance to the Flint River and along the bluffs just below where the Paint Rock comes in.
I'm going try my luck out around spring tomorrow going to take the family out and do some trolling with crankbaits. Don't know how much luck we will have after this front but will let you know how we did.
