Bridgeport Crappie

[Phil Lilley]

Today was a good learning experience. I’m not a crappie fisherman. Can’t wait to get back. I think I need some ice jigs.

Good video, cool to see fishing on Table Rock, especially crappie. Hope you do more. I agree nothing like the thump of a crappie bite.  Did look kind of eerie in that fog. Was so cool when you found the bag of Bobby Garland Baby Shad in the water. I believe that was a sign for sure. I had just told my wife that is the bait I would think would be good in TR's clearer water.  I have been using them on our lake lately after using tri-color mini-jigs my whole life and having some success.

Great video--I use baby shad on a roadrunner jig in our farm ponds here and they are my goto bait for crappie.  Have fished Flat Creek area for years and always catch fish.  FYI- just past the bridge on the creek is Flat Creek Restaurant which is a great place to grab an adult beverage and something to eat. Fished the creek many times and never went past the bridge to find the restaurant.  Great find --good food and good people.

I was pretty sure the video was in the area of Flat Creek Restaurant but wasn't sure exactly where.  I had read about Flat Creek on this site a few times so we made it a point to go there our last few times visiting Branson. Your right good food and good people.
