Crappie Weekend 5/3

[Haulin Bass]

We did okay. Left Greenfield Access at CC about 1;30pm Saturday.

Went to our favorite spot, 12-18 foot point near a timber filled cove. caught a bunch of shorts right off the bat! (* Been a tad miffed at the bait guy, the minnows were "TINY!".) I liked it when you got some bigger minnows with some Gold ones mixed in. The Gold ones worked GREAT! *Catfish liked em too!

But we stuck with it, and pulled in about a half dozen big females midway into the trip, and about 20/30 shorts. So we went into a couple of coves, and the water was REALLY LOW to get any off the banks, but we managed to catch another 5 or 6 big females off of the standing timber in about 8 foot of water!

Then we went back to our deeper point, and the bite was on much better as evening hit!

Finished up with about 20 nice keepers, and about 50 shorts. (* I DID THROW THE PINK LEMON-AID FLICKER SHAD, but I must have given up on it too early. Didn't get anything on it!)

And we caught several small bass, a couple small walleye, and a SOW white bass that we couldn't give away! (that white bass would have just stunk up the fridge.)

But, we went through 6 dozen live minnows, and I only used (1) Jig ALLL Day. I was tipping my jig, and that seemed to get the bigger females to bite.

But mostly used just a single minnow on a gold Abberdine with a Bite Indicator!
