I got out yesterday to look for some Bass and Crappie patterns for some upcoming trips. The water temp averaged around 50 and the level looked great, and there was a lot of current that helped with being able to catch several of both, especially some good quality Bass. I checked on a few Crappie areas first few minutes then I got out my Echo Crankbait and went to having a "blast" catching several nice fish burning it along deep grass lines. I was only able to stay with this for a couple of hrs. due to having to leave for prior commitments, but the action I was able to get into was well worth the short time I had to check these patterns. The Fall patterns have really taken off for both Crappie and Bass so get out and enjoy it. Have fun, Mike Carter
