Was a warm day with light winds so I decided to go to Prairie Creek and try to add to my catch of crappie went to my spot that I've been catching limits well make a long story short I got one small crappie and that was it took a trip on down to Summit Lake got skunked there inch and a quarter of rain high winds and several days of cold temperatures really put a hurt on the fishing skim ice when I started melted off partially better luck next time I guess
Nice you got out, better times are coming!
Just warm ups for when it warms up! Way to stick with it!

Nice to get out!
How do you like prarie creek compared to summit?
Good try anyway are they charging to launch your boat or to shore fish thinking about trying some shore fishing maybe could cast close to some brush pilesQuote:

Yes they do charge a fee for bank fishing you can pay by the day or the year not sure what the charge is I pay $100 to launch my boat all year as for the question about whether I like Prairie Creek or Summit Lake better each lake has its time and place Prairie Creek is a good spring and summer and fall Lake summit's really tough in the summertime when the weather gets hot
The walleye should be going

I've got some buddies who wade from shore and catch a lot of prespawn walleye around this time of year but I just concentrate on the slabs!
This time of year, I go for walleye mostly. Once it warms up a little, I hit the crappie. Best crappie was 16.5 inch from PC ;)

Wow 16 and a half inch crappie is a hog! biggest ones I've ever taken out of there and I fished there my whole life is several 14". Good job. I've talked to guys trolling for marble eyes catching big crappie on crank baits by accident. The quality on crappie has improved greatly since shad were introduced to the lake.
sounds like you mite want to troll cranks around there. I get crappie trolling wee craws and stuff for suspended gills in summer.
