My wife and I went out today and caught 5 crappie, two big ole perch and had a nice bass up to the boat but it got off. The water temperature in Clouds creek has jumped up to almost 70 degree from 65 yesterday. Crappie are shallow in two to four feet of water. We caught some females that were about to burst with eggs. The biggest was a Black Crappie that weighed 1.5lbs.
