    Default Buggs ?


    I'm planning on camping at longwood campground and crappie fishing this weekend. I was woundering if it would be better to longline , beat the banks or, fish dockes this weekend. This the wifes and I first trip there this year.Its a long ride back home to Gibsonville without any crappie coming home with us. Any and all ideas , help and suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
