Crappie Report, Tuesday, 28 Sep

[Fireflies]

Put in at 123 bridges, heading to High Point, stopped short due to wind from northwest. Fished from this point back towards 123 bridges. Fished from 8am until 1pm. Used minnows and crappie jigs. All fish were caught at approx 8 ft on minnows in water 14 to 20 ft deep water, and 100 or more feet from bank, around tree stumps and obstructions. The shad seamed thick and spread out. We ended up catching 8 large drum (hitting hard, lost one pole), 10 crappie (5 keepers), 3 white bass (all keepers), and NO walleye, but again we were fishing for crappie using minnows not worms. Nice to have cool days are back.
