We've got a small creek here about 1.5 miles from the house that we ride 4 wheelers down to and fish. It is good for bream fishing and crappie fishing. Not very big of a creek, but this time of the year we have caught the crappie ganged up under drifts of leaves or in the tops of trees that have fallen in. Might be that you fish 10 to 15 different places before you find them and they probably won't be slabs, but I bet they are there. Good luck.
