aarchdale@coresleep.com 1,635 Posted December 29, 2020 Report Share Posted December 29, 2020 Little boy talked me into going so we hit Beaver Creek and caught 4 crappie real quick and a smallmouth that gave the little guy a battle. Then we hid from the wind so he could try out his new RC Boat. We had fun with that for a while and then packed it up. I went back by myself today and caught 11 crappie. They were very scattered in open water, i chased around schools of 4 and 5 fish with livescope and would drop on them and catch one or two and then go hunting again, a few came off brush, and almost all were in 25-30ft. Bite was extremely light using minnows, they would eat it and not move, cant imagine how many i didnt even know bit. Crappie were all around 11" except one 14.5". The water column in front of Beaver ramp is absolutely loaded with fish i just dont know what they are, they look small on the graphs and all i caught was one tiny yellow perch out of them Phil Lilley, Royal Blue, marcusearlt and 7 others 9 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Gizzards Shad That would make sense, they were scattered throughout the water column but none on the bottom and would not react to a bait dropping in front of their face. Even the 11" crappie were distinctively bigger on the scope. And all the ones i caught were withing a few feet of the bottom Quote Link to post Share on other sites
