Fishing Report - Cricket Creek Marina

[Phil Lilley]

Water Level--903.25--rising slowly

Water Temperature--55 degrees

Water Condition--Clear but should start to have some color after Thursday's rains.

Crappie---This has been a very good winter for crappie fishing all over Table Rock. The size of crappie has improved greatly over the previous few years.

Crappie are being caught suspended in the tree lines south of the dock. Fish a jig or a live minnow 6 to 12 feet deep in 20 to 25 feet of water.

Black bass are hitting crank baits on secondary points in the creeks. Look for chunk rock points to be most productive.

Not much word on white bass yet, but they should start soon.

Thanks for the report....I've been patiently watching and will be down there in 2 weeks. We hope to hit it good in the Long/Cricket creek area.
