What a difference a few days make. Went back to the places in Sons Creek I caught them on the 2nd and blanked, all the places!  Over 9 hours two of us caught 6 small blacks, 6 whites and 1 crappie.  Jigs and jerkbaits caught the few fish we had. Talked to a number of folks fishing and everybody seemed to be struggling, especially the crappie fishermen.  52 to 55 degree water temps.  Tight Lines......NOT. 😩

Pretty much the same for me. Not sure why it was so difficult. No wind might had played a little in it. Had 3 bites all day. That produced a couple of small spots. one on a ned and one on a small swim bait. I'm hoping the crappie pick up soon. Seen pretty much the same temps over in the high point area.  Mike

We were out a little after 7 am to about 1 pm. I caught 6 LM and my buddy only had one! Caught the majority in/around chicken rock (chicken foot?) and one keeper over in Sons. Of the 6 I caught, two were keepers - but they were small - albeit, healthy. I missed a few, but all of mine came on a whacky rig 7" BPS senko-type bait. His came on a small in-line spinner. We also threw several spinners, cranks, a jerk and even a zarra spook in the early morning. Either they were waiting for the evening to feed, or they weren't there yesterday morning.
