Crappie Fishing Today

[just fishin]

Put in at Roach today and fished to Linn Creek cove. Started at about 9:00 am and was taking the boat out at 3:30 in the afternoon. Really slow start just picking up a keeper here and there but was still catching several small fish. Was beginning to think a limit between me and my buddy was going to be tough, but we kept fishing dock after dock. That being said we know several docks with brush and these are the docks we were fishing. finally about 1:30 in the afternoon we found a good dock full of fish. We were in about 25 foot of water fishing straight down and reeling up slow with Crappie nibblets. The fish were right on the bottom below some brush hung from cables. We did catch two limits most were about 10 inches long and they were 2 to 3 feet off the bottom. These fish were really fat and were full of shad. Good luck and go fishin!!

Glad you got into them. I went to the crappie dock at 3 this afternoon. Caught 11 and like you guys, the fish were at 26 to 30 feet. Bite was lite and their bellies were full.

First 2012 time out yesterday at Roach as well trying to get the bugs out. Didn't get anything above 10". Found mine at every depth around docks. I didn't start till 12 and left at 4. I kept pretty close to the ramp. I did learn that I need to head to the parts store for some new batteries. Come on Spring!!!
