Quick Crappie Report 12/9

[packersooner]

Sorry for the delayed report. Managed to sneak out from mid-morning until mid-afternoon. Managed 8 keepers with a small handful of shorts. Good quality on the keepers with a few true slabs. Was a bit surprised that water temps were in the mid to upper 40s. Figured they would be a bit warmer. 

Fished jigs over deep brush on the edge of creek channels in the mid-lake area. 26-32 feet down in 33 to 43 fow. Those fish were down in the brush too. Took lots of patience to coax them out.

Did briefly try to scan and fish balls of shad. Found one monster ball and proceeded to catch...a big drum. No crappie, but I didn't really give that pattern a fair shake.

From what I gather there is a good spoon bite for bass on Table Rock fishing shad schools over deep water. This is typically the time of year if your good at using electronics fishing for crappie over deep water can be real good. I just wish I had that skill. Or should I say the skill and patience.
