5/7

This is not much of a report, but went fishing and feel like I need to post what I observed.  Day started off crummy when trolling motor wouldn't work.  Was forced to troll with the big motor.  Lost 2 lures.  Kinda asked for it on account we launched at Route N and motored into Indian Creek.  Still a nice day to be on the lake.  Boats that we saw pulling in fish were on the bank using long poles.  Storm then kicked up and we got off fast.  Get away was not that graceful due to truck not starting in the parking lot.  Jumped it with boat battery and got it to the in-laws house up the road.  Good thing no fish were caught.  After messing with truck for 2 hours and getting boat into safe location I would not have had time to clean them.  Hopefully JC's will get my truck back quickly.

Anyways crappie are on the bank and cannot go this weekend.  Good luck to those of you that can go.

How long were you able to stay out? I went Wednesday and Thursday, and wished I stayed Friday too, cause Friday seemed real calm in comparison, and I finally figured out a way to catch a few by then. Of course most of the ones I came across were in deeper water still.

A couple of hours.  Finder was spotting fish in 10 FOW (At least I think it was fish. Still get use to the new finder. And the new to me boat.)  I was surprised we didn't get one hit.  One guy was right on the bank when I saw him catch what appeared to be a crappie.  I would be out this weekend if I could and I would be fishing shallow.  Last year about this time I limited out just moving from stump to stump using a jug and bobber.
