Memorial Day Weekend Report

[LoweSTX175]

Fished around Grosse Point and up into Cole Camp Creek both Monday and Tuesday.  Crappie were up in the creek biting on chartreuse jigs tipped with crappie bites under docks once the sun started to come up. Was working on a fast limit until a bass fisherman decided he needed to come over to take a look at us by driving across the creek. He got within about 50 foot under idle...once he saw a couple of fish picked up he hammered down and stirred up the water. Crappie shut down over the next hour.  Moved out the main channel and trolled some cranks. Picked up two decent Whites (returned unharmed) along with one keeper Walleye.  On Tuesday went back to the spot where the crappie were picked up and had three keep. Trolled again the main channel and had one flathead brought in that would have gone about 10 pounds. He was turned back to grow. 

None of the crappie had eggs.... looked like the spawn is either over or has slowed down significantly.
