Fishing Report 3-11-2015 More Crappie

[johndarin]

Today was a very nice day. I actually got a little hot while I was out fishing today! the fishing was a little slower than yesterday but they were still cooperating. My dad and I fished the same area of Long Creek and caught crappie and white bass but there were a lot of other people in the same area. After a few hours we moved to Cricket Creek just to get away from the crowd but there were a few boats there too. We decided just to fish right where the two creeks come together and it was a good choice. We caught more crappie and white bass. The majority of the fish were in about 24 feet of water. We caught them on swimming minnows on an 1/8oz jig head.

Nice report Darin. Glad you and your dad got into them. You thinking about going back to Alaska?

[johndarin]

Thanks DD! I'm not sure about Alaska, I haven't heard anything from them yet about next summer. Are you going back?

[duckydoty]

I am. Just got my employment agreements yesterday. Report for duty on June 9th.

Thanks for the report guys. Good job on the water. You can bet it will be swarming with boats this weekend ha

[johndarin]

Nice DD! Same place right? It was swarming with boats. To many for me thats why we moved to the confluence of the two creeks, no one within about 300 yards.

Hoping to find some on the james arm tomorrow and Saturday. What's the water temp running now?

[johndarin]

The water temp at long creek was around 50 but thats at the opposite end of the lake from the james.

What do you think this rain will do to the crappie? I hope it doesn't scatter them out to much.

I went today and long creek was full of trash! I didn't even try to fish there I just fished a little in cricket creek and caught some.
