Neely henry crappie update

Hi guys, New member here. Crappie update been shooting docks in morning averaging 10 -12 3/4 - 1 1/4 lb. Evening about the same . Been catching more sitting on the dock with minnows around 10 pm . Talked to a older gentleman this afternoon at a dock I shoot he said same thing, his kids caught 25 2 nights ago on minnows and he caught 15 that next morning with the left over minnows. Going to take Dick out bass fishing in the morning,come to find out his wife doesn't wanted him out alone so I figured I'd take him out and see if I can put.him on some bass. Ill post bass bass report tomorrow.

:welcome:biggrin

:welcome Good report !

Welcome from Odenville Al. Please leave a few for me till I can get back up there next week.:fish

Welcome from Alabama. I saw your post today. At Neely Henry which dock are you able to sit on and fish? If you don't mind please share or PM the directions with this 71 yr Old Man. All I saw at Neely were three pools of water that had steep rocky banks and snakes in them. Not my cup of tea for bank fishing. I need flat areas for my bad ankles and the grandchildren.

Welcome from Guntersville, Alabama! Thanks for the report. Haven't fished Neely in a while. Hard to leave the Big G when you live so close.

Welcome to the site. Thanks for the report. I figured it was get good on Nelly Henry. I have not been there yet. Maybe I'll get up there soon. Be sure to check in with the alabama forum lots of good people there.

Hey Ship, the docks he is talking about are most likely privately owned. I do not know of any public docks to fish off of except the ones at Rainbow Landing at the Hwy 77 bridge launch, at the Ala Power launch by the dam and the public dock at Canoe
Creek. Hope this helps. Be safe and give us a report if you get to go.

That is what I thought my friend. I have seen people fishing from the floating cabins there but not on any public dock areas. I might have to check out the hwy 77 bridge launch at Rainbow Landing one day. Thanks for the heads up. Love the comments in your siggy. Do I have your permission to use it?

Sure thing my friend.:fish

Made it out yesterday evening shooting docks caught 20 3/4 - 1 1/4 lb crappie. Had 15-20 mph winds, not bad for 3 hours of fighting the wind. These evening fished 2 hours only 6. I'll start posting pics next time I get out, hope tomorrow if the wind will ever lay. My catch has been on (B G ) mo glow outlaw, and black and chartreuse two inch grub. Fish have been holding on the 5-6 foot drops. Using 1/32 jighead,giving it a slow 5-6 count before reeling. Anyone making a trip needs to give me a shout, I'll put you on fish. I'd even be happy to take someone out, and they can keep the fish. The dock bite is good now. I have 70 brush piles in anywhere from 5-18 foot for trolling,down rigging , and adding more weekly.

Better hurry!!!!!!

Wow! 70 brush piles, you been really working hard. Nice catch . Thanks for sharing the Neely Henry report.

Good report. Glad you are catching them.

Thanks for the report. You need to be posting these on the Alabama board also. I hope to get up there tis week.
