I spent a few evenings on the Red trying to break in the motor, then Sunday, I picked up my nephew and headed to Cypress to give 'em a go. We launched late to avoid the fog. We put in just as it was lifting. An hour later, the thunder. We ran up and parked in the new boat slip at the marina and waited it out. When the rain quit, we went down by the damn, straight out from the public launch, fishing the bottom of 18-19ft. Snagged three up quick then nothing. Ran up north of the beach and tried jigging around the edges of a 13ft Creek. Nothing. Went back to our first spot of the morning fishing 5ft in 18ft and grabbed a quick four. Then nothing. It's been a while since I fished Cypress and even longer since fishing crappie. I'm really stoked to get back out there and hunt them down. Maybe I'll bump into you out there soon. Nice job on your catch!
