I had connected boat and was ready to go to Anna today but son called and asked about fishing:highfive so I put it off till tomorrow.
Looking forward to it and will post results. Called my buddy Chris at Anna point to see what's been happening since my last visit, he was just finishing up his blog.. Dang, wish I could fish it every day right now!

After I called Chris, I really wanted to let some here know that Anna is really starting to turn on and see if anyone else is thinking of going..
And Yep, my son fishes with me 5-6 times a yr. ( he really loves rockfishing, but it often conflicts with is hunting) Even comes by house just to BS once or twice a mth!
nice report charlie. your buddy's got 'em figured out. good luck tomorrow.
Hope you get them Charlie.
I will be going tomorrow also,,have to help mt dad put in his garden today..what time are you going Charlie?? you putting in at Anna Point?
Diecutter, we went today. Only about 5 hrs. My son put it to me! He caught all the crappie , guessing @ 15 at 9-10". We also landed 10 or so channel cats and 2-3 bream.
Water was stained from rain ( pretty clear at marina) and most crappie guys where not happy (several Maryland and PA boats lots of boat traffic) The females were still in staging areas. Learned some new water today and found a brush pile or 2. Put in at Anna point and fished next creek/cove west of ramp, forgot name?? Son waited till we got back to Richmond before he said he would fish again tomorrow!! Man, I would have stayed till dark and rented room at lighthouse inn on the lake!!! Were planning on Thursday or Friday for next trip.

ok,,thanks for the report,,I'am still going and I will target the staging areas,,,will report my out come
BTW, we tried to keep only males, but when I cleaned the fish,,,, in my wife's newly renovated kitchen:hatchet: ,,,, I noticed a couple of fish I thought were males because their belly's were thin, turned out to be females with eggs,, there eggs were no were near ready to lay! Also no fish were in tux. I forgot highest WT but do remember seeing 64.5. 98% were caught in 8-15fow on minnows- jigs only caught small bream- opposite of my last trip!
Parking lot was FULL! Ramp was 4-5 boats at a time.
Nice report Charlie. I think the spawn is still aways off on most of bodies of water. Where me and Vic fished today the water temp was 73 and the fish were ready. Glad you got to fish with your son.
Good report Charlie, glad you got to go and get some
