Crappie Fishing Report - 5/26

[shockley32]

Had the opportunity to get on the water today for a little while. Still don't have my boat back yet but a buddy was wanting to catch some specks, he charged his trolling motor batteries and we took off early. Three of us caught our limits in about four hours, also caught 4 to 5 shorts for every keeper. Not many bigs today, most were just eaters. Started on brush piles, cast, count down and reel back. They were 8-12 feet down in 15-25 fow. Tried to fish a few trees as well, did well on the ones we could find, still need the water to drop another foot or two.

Best color was a light pink, but also did well on blue, anything with chart, white, shad. Great day to be on the water, left early when the boat traffic started to pick up. Fished way up the Lindley to try to stay away from as much traffic as possible. It was great to be back on the water, hadn't been since the last tourney.

Good luck and be careful this weekend.
