Chickamauga Lake / Wolftever Creek report...3-17-19

[Muskrat]

A crappie trip to the creek Sunday afternoon. We were curious just how muddy it still was and if anything was biting. The conditions aren't great but it seems to be clearing up some. A beautiful day and we almost had the creek to ourselves. We found most of our fish on the flats relating to bait fish more so than structure. We fan cast jigs in open water in the 6-10 foot range and drifted "minners" off and on.

We didn't fish "hard" as our creek trips are always relaxing and a nice getaway from the main lake. We caught about 15 crappie with 6 keepers. Water temperature was touching 58 degrees as we were leaving. The bite should only get better looking at the forecast this week.
