Tried Harris Brake for a change

I heard about good strings with some slabs being caught over there. The wind and sun was bad. Saw several boats and bank fishermen, never saw them land anything. I hung in and finally caught 3 Crappie and 3 Bass. My buddy also caught 3 Bass and we released those Bass. Water temp got up to 59 surface and started clouding up. I think the bite was going to improve but he had to take his elderly mother to supper. The 3 Crappie I had totaled over 5 lbs. If the bite picks up I may just try that lake again. I figure the water warm a couple more degrees and it will be hot. That was my first Crappie trip to Harris Brake. I used my umbrella tubes same as usual.
