As far as I am concerned any day is a good day to go fishing. That said, I am fairly new to crappie fishing, and wondering what you all think this weather is going to do to the fishing. A friend of mine is coming in from Mississippi and we were going to fish Sunday, but he has to be back earlier than expected so it looks like we are fishing Saturday.
water temps are coming up nicely in oxbow lakes in central AR, not sure where you are, but I have been catching fish lately even on cold days. Wind might be a challenge though.
Fish we have noticed are starting to move up we have been catching a majority of our fish 4-8' deep instead of 20-30' in the past months
Well, I am going to give it a try. I was planning on going to Wattensaw but think I am going to have to stick closer to home. I will most likely go out on Little Maumelle. Out there you can usually find a place out of the wind. Appreciate the info that fish are biting, and I will be sure to try some shallower water as well.
Good luck! Post up some results and picks.

Good luck fish this weekend. I don't thing our outside weather effect the fish as much as it dose us. It take a lot of cold weather to drop the water temp. Now when the air drops it don't take us very long for us to get our coat.
Just fish they gotta eat sometime!! :fish
I Guarantee you won't catch em in the house..
Go fishing! I will
Wind and cold! I'm in!
The only point I see to February is to keep January and March from slapping together too hard.
Like Jig Pole said " Go Fishin" lol . I am, and im definately NOT a weekend fisherman .! Good luck ! Im going to either Conway (main lake) or ????? heck, wherever that red truck takes me in the morning . ! cheers
Conway is a little tough during the day right now.

I ended up going out on Little Maumelle. Only managed one keeper crappie, caught a few dinks. Also caught quite a few kentuckys, ended up with enough fish for a good mess. The fish all came off of roadrunners with orange head/chartreuse body. Probably could have caught more crappie in deeper water but ended up fishing anywhere I could find out of the wind, mostly shallow water less than 5 feet.
