Crappie Report 3/14

[mcp633]

Went down yesterday with my pop and tried to pull some slabs out of the lake. We were going to go to Purvis Beach to put in, but were crunched on time, so we used PB2 which was a little busy. I haven't seen the water so low in quite some time. I mean LOW! The new ramp at PB2 is closed in case you didn't know, but the old one is going.

We fished hard on submerged brush that is usually productive on the Glaize this time of year. No luck. I mean SLOW! Dad's been down several times this week and noted the difference in the color and temperature of the water on the Glaize as opposed to the Gravois arm where he'd been earlier in the week. Gravois is clear and slow, Glaize water is a little green and two or three degrees warmer. About 50 degrees. Should be getting good soon!

About the fish. We would find some occupied brush here and there and maybe catch 5-6 off of the bed with one keeper. Search, repeat, and so on. The fish we did find were on the shallower brush. Caught one 11 incher off of a dock, but that was it. Between the two of us we had five keepers between 10 AM and 2 PM. It stunk, but a great day to be on the water. Got the usual airshow from the A-10s from Whiteman AFB. That's always cool!

Thanks for posting. They should start to move shallow. I notice alot of bank fisherman out this past weekend.
