should'a got back on the water sunday but that 22 hour sat done me in ! After this cold front moves through be back to trying to figure out what the crappies are doing

[fishdoc]

I have seen a cold front like this bunch the fish up before. hopefully we can find where they are bunched up now! they are makin power 20 hrs a day so maybe the lake won't rise a lot with this new rain.

I didn't check the lake level sat but id bet it was at least 301- plenty water- seems like I find most my crappies when its about 300- been researching old post here & on Kerr/bugs messg. board (& every where else I could find) & I got the terminology for trolling figured out ( long line-flat line-spider rig etc.) now gota figure out the techniques & timing- good Lord willing & creeks don't rise ( & some work comes in the door) im gona try to set up a trip with you Doc some time in June
