Seeing as there isn't much posted on here about the Delta and my post from yesterday garnered some interest, I figured I'd post a few pics from my fishing partner's Delta trip last weekend. All fish caught spider rigging in 8-10' of water using a combination of minnows and jigs.

Nice!!
Nice !
thanks for sharing !
Don’t hear from many folks down that way !
Another nice mess. A guy Tony used to post pretty regular from down that way, hadn’t heard from him in awhile. I hope everything is good with him.
Glad somebody is getting a taste of spring!
I'm gonna start posting more on here. If any of y'all see this boat on the water, give me a shoutAttachment 394236

Nice fish. I also fish the Delta even though I haven’t gotten to go in last three weeks. But I fish Cliff’s Landing, Live Oak, Hubbard’s. Have caught some nice ones right there in Stiggins. But figuring out water can be a task in itself. I will try to post more as well.

My son and I are trying to learn to crappie fish . We went this morning and launched at Cliffs Landing but got skunked . Not spider rigging just single lines with minnows . Any advice would be greatly appreciated
I guess my first question would be have you fished the delta much?Quote:

This week the water just came down out of the woods so things will get more productive. They are not going to spray their eggs where the water will fall out and eggs dry out on limbs. Keep that in mind. I also noticed you said you used single poles. I never go without trying jigs as well. I find what they are hungry for that day. I personally went just across the Mississippi line a week ago and did very well but the females eggs were still about two weeks out and the water temperatures started at 61 degrees but got up to 65 degrees. They were more aggressive in 65 degree water.
The smaller one was only 10” that got gills cut by the hook but the average was 13.5” and most ran about 15.5” that we kept for meal. We probably caught some 35 or 40.

We don’t fish the delta much but try to get there when we can . I have never had any luck with jigs but I am also still new to this . Where did you fish on the state line . We live in Grand Bay so that is probably very close to the house . Could get more fishing done if I could cut out my drive time . Any info would be appreciated
