shockley32 Posted August 22, 2019 Posted August 22, 2019 It's been a while since I've posted a report. Here you go! Crappie are slightly scattered around brush and standing timber in isolated areas, however other areas (within a mile) they are stacked tightly together. If you aren't getting bit or catching multiple fish in a particular area (ex: brush pile) watch your graph about a boat length away from the pile, we caught several just suspended 20-30 feet from the brush. Recently went out for two days and fished both the Pomme and Lindley arms. Had 30 keepers both days in under three hours. The fish are solid, thick and very healthy. Here's the details: Crappie are 8-12' deep in 16-30' of water. They are biting both vertical jig as well as pitching and swimming it back. The bite is light and you need to pay close attention. I used the following jigs and colors for these trips: Crappie Slammers jigs (available at I AM Outdoors on Hwy 65 in Buffalo, MO, you should check out this store, it's awesome!) Style: Lil' Shad, Shimmer Stix, Thinner Minner Color: Electric Lime, Glow Chart, Toothpaste, Pink Now the lake is nearly back to normal I hope to be on the water more! Good luck - catch a boat load!

Johnsfolly Posted August 22, 2019 Posted August 22, 2019 Congrats on catching a bunch of keeper crappie! Great report! Sound like a fish fry to follow! Would have loved to seen some fish photos.
Heretolearn Posted August 23, 2019 Posted August 23, 2019 Great report and sounds like I have new place that I need to visit. Thanks!
shockley32 Posted August 23, 2019 Author Posted August 23, 2019 I should take more pictures! It's been an awkward year with the water, hoping it gets to normal soon. The plan is to be on the water on a regular basis! Brad Daryk Campbell Sr 1 Have your visited Limitville lately?
Members kelbrand Posted August 23, 2019 Members Posted August 23, 2019 Great Crappie report! Thanks for the knowledge! Anyone have a bass report??????
shockley32 Posted August 23, 2019 Author Posted August 23, 2019 Not sure about a bass report, however I did catch 15-20 bass per trip while crappie fishing. Most were small, but there were a few keepers sprinkled in. They will give the old crappie rod a workout! Brad Have your visited Limitville lately?
