I fished on Lindley Creek Arm in a couple coves on Friday morning of the 26th from about 7:00 a.m to noon. Pretty slow bites and windy, but caught about 6 keeper crappie (5 males, 1 female) and about the same for non-keepers. They were mostly off the rocky banks with bobbers/minnows, and jigs working very slow. Minnows were set about 2-3 feet under the bobber. Fish were caught in 5-10 feet of water mostly near timber.

Sounds like an awesome day. Those are memories a boy and his father will cherish for years!

Sunday night and Monday morning I took the kids camping and fishing around Cedar Ridge campground. Caught 4 keeper largemouth and a smallmouth with the 4 yr old getting his first "keeper". Most of them were on silver/black with hint of red shad raps or FireTiger flicker shad around the rocks and trolling over the rocky points and near the small island. Most were in water at least 12 ft deep (I don't have a depth finder so not sure exactly the depth). The biggest was 18 inch was on a deeper diving Fire Tiger flicker minnow. Also caught several smaller ones early last week near Masters working same silver/black and purple shad raps in 6-12 ft of water. One was about a 20 inch largemouth.
