Not very much cover in this small flood control lake.In the cold month's the crappie suspend out in open water just under the shad/small bream.Couple of fench row's.Working on fish cover (buckets).
learning curve on the spider Rig(not the same as the (ozark jig pole). Usually use my White River fly rod,poping bug/bream killer(meatgetter critters).(spring/summer).

Thanks for sharing the pictures and story about the trip. It sounds like you had a quick and cheap fix for the trolling motor.

Nice pics.

Doing what it takes to put fish in the boat nice job congrats!

good pics Jackie .. needed to see a fish!!!
