Members Wilson3144 Posted June 26, 2015 Members Share Posted June 26, 2015 Going night fishing out of mutton creek tonight if the rain stays away and again on Tuesday night with my wife for sure. I am new to night fishing under the lights but had very good success a few weeks ago with my wife. A good map, mdc bush pile locator website and getting there an hour before sundown to mark several brush piles with buoys were the key for me. Marked three piles in about 50 yard triangle and then anchored up right in the middle of it. Set the lights up at dusk (9ish) and started catching fish constantly at ten until she made me leave to pick our kid up at 1. Caught 30 plus with 16 of them being keepers. Would have caught more if I was not attending to the netting, baiting, and measuring my wife's fish. But not complaining, she liked it and keeps asking to go back.

Members Catfish Hunter Posted June 27, 2015 Author Members Share Posted June 27, 2015 I fished between b7 & b8 28 fow found bait fish had the biggest bait ball I've ever seen. Fish 10pm to 2am only 4 keepers. I can't find brush piles 81 degree water. Where did I go wrong? Where I need to go fishing at? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Wilson3144 Posted June 27, 2015 Members Share Posted June 27, 2015 I had about the same luck last night. 80.4 water temp, 25-27 FOW, bait ball the size of a pick up truck, and only a handful of fish. I know I was on a brush pile because it took me 10 mins to get my anchor unhung when I left. I think the two inches of rain yesterday and the front has them lockjaw right now. Plus the 15 mph wind last night didn't help. I would love to give you a better report but I'm still trying to figure out this type of fishing myself. I got a report of a few good deep brush piles next to the mile long bridge I'm going to try Tuesday though. Do you think the moon phase would affect the crappie under the lights, like it does for bass fishing and deer hunting? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtr dogs Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 For what its worth there are a lot of bait balls the size of pickup trucks, that may be why the fish are so hard to come by. Fished the last couple of days around Crabtree and the fish were not where they normally are at least on the graph. It seems like they and the bait balls are suspended toward the backs of coves,at least that is where I have found the few I have caught. hope this helps. HAVE A HAPPY and SAFE 4TH!!!
