Crappie fishing with Jbird. 12/07/2018
I love to take new people who want to know how to improve their fish catching. We didn’t have the best of days catching wise, but it was a teaching day of looking at various structures and how to fish them.
Jay said that he wasn’t very good at dock shooting, so I took him to a dock that usually will yield a few fish. There was a lot more current flowing under and through this dock in order for it to be ideal, but we managed several fish from that dock. A couple of 13.25” fish on back to back casts was the highlight for me. Jay and I doubled on that dock once.
We looked at bluffs but way too much current to fish them with any success. I showed him another prime deep water spot and we saw a good bunch of fish on the graph, but they were haven’t nothing to do with us.
We searched a couple of roadbeds and managed 4 fish off the roadbeds. The weather was a little chilly, but we were dressed for it and with the wind not blowing at all, we couldn’t ask for better conditions to fish in.
Thanks, Jay for letting me ride around with you in search of crappie. I hope that you were able to glean a few tips and I know that a person can’t learn it all in one trip, so as many trips as you want or need, I am willing to be teacher. All the places that I showed you today are hot spots at one time or another. But, I don’t have one spot that always has biting crappie on it regardless of season. I don’t believe such a place exists. Grin.
