I Love Hunting Seaon!!!

Shot these down at 9 feet in three hours with my Ole Trusty 210" Ozarks, loaded with two 16th Oz Gauge Buck Shot, and 1000C Midsouth. Super charged my Powder with Some Nibbles and Gewbers..in 44 degree water They were really flying hard today right over the Bow Of my Ole War Eagle Duck Boat. Did'nt miss a one of these Duck's but really had to lead my shots in that wind...Shewwww, today and hardly saw any other hunters out today. I love Hunting Season. Good LucK to all you hunters out there this weekend. Blast away cos I know I will be. HEHE!!!

Good catch !!! Been watching the barometer and it has been 30.2 up to 30.4 ... Does the pressure matter less in the winter than the summer??? Or do I need to shut up and fish!!

High Pressure and lake turn over drives them deep just off the bottom in the winter...where it has very little effect on their feeding habits. Most important thing to remember in the winter is find the bait fish in deep water and you will find the crappie just off the bottom below them feeding 1-5 feet from the bottom. One thing you can count on in the winter. mass amount of shad in deep water means mass amount of crappie below them off the bottom. This has held true in many lake I have fished.
Fish will have a tendency to move shallower in the winter with a low pressure front and warming temps, but at best the deep verses shallow bite will be 50/50 during these times as many fish will still be deep. The deep holes, main creek channels, and dams are the best places to go with your electronics. The deep spots in your lake is the name of the game in the winter time. Good Luck and go deep Brother.

Fish eat everyday somewhere, just got to find them. Some days are harder to find the exact place or the better time but they will eat everyday!

Good job CrappiePro!!!thanks for post and picks!!
