I was up this morning and put in at old state park. Got new graph on ranger and mostly played with it. Water temps stayed arounfd46 to 47 degrees in hawker, hartley and out in front of orleans ramp in cove with stone fence. Threw jerk bait there with no takers. Only out couple hours had to work in pm. Might make it back up thursday or take yak up little sac

fished sons at 39 bridge today. we found 55.3 degree water but no crappie they were there over the weekend but they shut down today for some reason. all i caught was a small male white and a dink LM. probly go again tomorrow and wednesday if the wind dont blow me off the lake.

yesterday the crappie didnt shut down we out thank ourselves and thought the cold spell had moved them back down the creek to the warmer deeper water on the bluff. Today I drove up scouting round again and found them cruising the banks on the road bed looking for a place to do their deal. Blk/chart jig of bout any type hair or plastic grub or tube just had to be the right color, 18'' under a bobber and most mine come less than 15 feet off the bank and some right on it under lay downs and wood washed up. I just about burned up cause i had a blk T shirt on and I wussed out and went home before 6:00 pm. Didnt get my limit but if id stayed till just before dark i wudda cause thats when they really turn on good. Listens fellas Sons creek is very low the flats on each side of the road bed are only 4' deep in the middle. you can put in at the ramp on the south side of the bridge but if you do be very careful. I'd hate to see someone damage a prop or lower unit when the fishing off the road bed is just as good most the time.
