Crappie tips?

Thinking about heading up to pomme one day this week to pester some crappie, anyone got any tips?

If you are wanting to catch a limit, I would wait until they quit dropping the lake so much.  Once they start letting out ~6 inches a day, my luck fishing for them dramatically drops.  It's more fishing and a whole lot less catching.  There are a lot better fisherman on this site than me, but that has been my experience over the past 2 years and the same trend on both Pomme and Stockton.

Well you weren’t wrong. Tuesday we gave it a go. Water temp 74, sunny all day. Caught a couple good crappie and a few bass, a Muskie and had a real good walleye on that came off at the boat. Ended up taking home a nice sunburn but not enough crappie to mess with cleaning  so we let them go. Sure beat workin tho.
