    Default Douglas lake


    im just a good ole boy from ohio, wondering what the conditions are like down on the great douglas lake. We made a trip there last summer and loved it so much we'd like to move down there.

    I was wondering if the lake levels have come up at all this year? Also, Hows the crappie fishing down there?

    Thanks booger1. Whats the average size of um down there? Do you catch them in the summer in deeper water.

    Do you troll, cast, or use floats?


    Thanks again buddy

    Douglas has been great this year. We started fishing in March and have made 8 trips thru last Tuesday. Got our limit each time except for last week when we only got 18 keepers. We troll with plastic grubs and rods runners. Going back tomorrow. There's usually 3 of us in my pontoon with 17 rods exploring the waters.
    Give me some slabs any old day. They make great fishing and eating. ~TG
