NICE FISH
Wow,
:welcome Nice looking fish!!
I think , after seeing his pictures, Arkabutla is where he needs to be. Maybe he could teach you gewbers a thing or two.
'Bula is where it's happening!! For sure!!

You will need to get used to a 15 fish per person limit... But they will be good ones..
Thanks for the tips guys i live very close to memphis so hopefully i can fish MS a lot im fine with a 15 fish limit its not all about catching a bunch i really enjoy figuring them out i have fished horseshoe quite a bit and any tips are appreciated i want to get good enough to catch em year round and maybe enter a few tournaments i think i settled for granada in the morning and possinly another lake in the afternoon after the spawn do they usually go back out to deeper water
Yes the white crappie do...they go to deep water and suspend or follow the shad......the black cappie will be near or around wood

Hey AR21ANGLER - has the trolling bite at Horseshoe cooled off? I had some good days there until about six weeks ago and then started fishing Sardis.
They will also scatter all over creation.
Yep, that's why many of us go to crankbaits after the spawn. Power trolling works good too.Quote:

I’m not AR21, but it seems to have some for me. Very spotty. Had a couple of good days, but got my but kicked last week (Tuesday) and came home with 7. Fish I did catch were in 20-25 FOW and wanted it .8-1 mph. Size seemed to be down from normal. Water temp was 72°. I really want to try pulling crankbaits down there. I think a guy could hurt em doing it.Quote:

i have the back set up to pull cranks or long line even spider rig out the side im gonna bring plenty of cranks and try it when you pull cranks normally what speed do you guys pull them at
Give or take 1.7 MPH.

Thanks for reports on Horseshoe. I pull cranks from 1.4 to 2.0 mph. I usually increase speed as it gets later in the morning.
Good mess of fish
