Brett, what took so long? I was thinking the same thing. Everybody offering to help. Sounds like everyone wants the locations of new fishing locations. Lol.

It helps to have a lot of brush around. Y'all would be able to take one of the coves and make a great place that holds crappie. Start out in the 25' depth and make piles up into the shallow water. Set them on the flats beside the channels. A lot of fish will spawn in the 10' depth because of the temp changes we have been having the last few years. Anything will work, even just a limb because the crappie just need to have cover to hide in.

Sounds like I'll have do background checks and full body search before leaving the dock

I was trying to be nice cause it's Christmas!
My reputation here has taken a hit and I was hoping another jack axx would step up😀

This is just my opinion and what I've learned over the years, fwiw. I have had much more success with other hardwoods and bamboo. I have caught fish on firs, but the disadvantage is the limbs are very close together and the time it takes to draw in zooplankton. With bamboo, I have caught fish within a few days time. It's also easier to handle and easier to make a larger pile with. It's light and you can cinch it down with twine and when you drop it, cut the twine and let it expand outwards. Just my .02
