Tville 5/1

Hey fellas, this is my first post. I’ve read this forum for years, and I finally thought I may as well contribute. I put in at Settlers around 7:30 and I started catching fish as soon as I started baiting my poles. I caught all of mine in 8-12 feet of water on double minnow rigs. The wind was atrocious but When I was able to get over some submerged logs I would spot lock my Ultrex and really probe the cover. I was spider rigging (90% of my crappie fishing) and there wasn’t a lot of boats out but man...did I mention the wind? Anyway I caught anywhere from 20-25 and I kept 8 really nice fish. >10.5”+ and a really nice Saugeye to boot. I don’t know how to post pics here yet. I’ll figure it out and post them.

Congrats and welcome. Enjoyed the post and pics.

First of all : :welcome to Crappie.com

Thanks for your report & pics ... they're always welcome.

Nice fish, and the Saugeye have been popping up in several of the more recent reports/pics, so congrats on that one, too !! :HandsClapping

And I see you figured out how to post pics ... GREAT !! Now, about those pics leaning to the left .... easiest way to correct that, in future pics being posted here, is to take the pics with the phone turned to the right (top of phone pointing to the right side of the person taking the pics). The reason they come out turned to the left like that is because the phone's orientation code doesn't correctly register on this site. This site will then try to "correct" the orientation by turning the pic to the left. It does that on quite a few phones, whether Androids or iPhones.

And you can always give your pics a test run to see how they'll show on the site ... just go to the Testing Area forum and post them ( https://www.crappie.com/crappie/testing-area/ )

Hope to see more reports/pics in the future :ThumbsUp

You done well. I fished about 6 hours yesterday and finally caught 7 measurable fish. Lot of shorts, a bunch of little hybirds. One saugeye that would not measure. Spider rigging with minnows. Ashes creek. The wind was an issue for sure. Only about 10 trucks at possum ridge.

the rain from next few days is going to make things very rough

I caught a Saugeye the other day too, I'm kind of surprised seeing
these now that the water is warmer

Made our first trip to Tville one day this week. We caught several fish but most were short around 9-9.5". We managed a few but about 70% of what we caught were shorts. We tried the lower end with jigs. And yes we had a big saugeye as well, lol. I have some learning to do on this lake to locate the keepers, or what to do to catch em.

We fished anywhere in 1ft to 35FOW and from 1 to 15ft deep. Everything we caught was in the depth range you mentioned. We were long lining and casting jigs.
