Kings River Crappie Report

[Crappie5]

We was down Good Friday and had 10 nice crappie and 13 whites, we went back down Easter Sunday and had our limits of 30 crappie. Pretty tough both days as they were just spotty and we never really found a good pattern. Most of them caught on pearl swimming minnows and live minnows.

water color was good yesterday and the surface temps was 49 at 7:00am and we left at 4:00pm and the surface temp was 58. Getting close..................

Pretty deep I assume? Or were they at least starting to move into the 10-12 foot range of water?

we caught a few in 6-8' deep. Most were out deeper

Crappie5: What type of structure was the most productive? Was it steep banks, flats, timber, or lay downs? I suppose the whites are migrating up stream, are they as far up as the hwy. 86 bridge or more towards the mouth of TR?

Good report, looks like ya'll had some good catching!

Thanks.

laydowns and standing timber in about 25' of water seemed to be the most productive. The whites was about halfway between the mouth and 86 bridge.
