Has anyone tried grand bayou lately? Thinking about trying it tomorrow. Fished darbonne this morning for the first time only caught 7 crappie but had a good time.

Matt, Justin and I went couple weeks ago and didnt do to well. Lots of fresh water and lake is back up.

Thanks for the update. Maybe the bite will get right before to long

Check the water level so you can determine the current and clarity. If the level is up she will be a bit muddy. Only way to know is to go. Good luck. There is a YouTube channel called Its a Crappie Life with some guys who fish off the spillway. There you have access from the top of the spillway to behind the buoys where you can't take a boat. You can see them fishing up against the concrete wall catching quite a few. No where near the size you catch out in the open lake but a good place to scratch out a good mess. The guy doesn't want to say in the comments where he is but its Grand Bayou Spillway.

Thanks I’ll have to get on youtube and check that out. I just launched my boat about to give it a try.

Good luck. In my past experiences I have found the fish to be just up on the flat away from the channel in 17.5 ft water depth.

I had to go to Farmerville yesterday -- The water is Muddier than usual with the Rain we have had.. If you look at Google Earth the water is cleaner up Corney towards Highway 2

Ended up with 10 but Several of them were pretty nice. Minnows only, about 17 to 19ft off the channel seemed to be the depth today for me.

Yes, sir. That's the way to do it. Nice mess of fish and a couple of toads for a bonus. Congratulations!

Thanks! It’s always a good time on the water!

Can’t wait to get home and try it myself. Did you see any bait balls while fishing?

Hopefully it’s about to get right. Yeah I did, that’s when I’d catch my of my fish if I could hang close to them. When I cleaned those fish they were full of shad.
