Started fishing at 8:00. Started on a deep drop, caught 1 keeper. Went to fish docks. A boat,<br />sitting where I wanted to go so I fished another dock till they left. Pulled in where they were at <br />and caught 5 good crappie.I caught crappie in as little as 5 1/2 fow. to as deep as 15 fow., using<br />a slow retrieve. Found 2 new docks that held crappie plus the one you told me about Steve,(BAD<br />MOVE STEVE). One dock was in 5 1/2 fow, looked like crap and nobody, including me gave it a <br />second look. Until now, I pounded 6 nice crappie quickly and filed it away. I had 40 keepers at<br />11:00. Continued to run the lake hard, checking every place I knew and catching crappie on most<br />stops. Got so hot as the day went on, it felt like somebody had a heat gun blowing it at you. Had<br />a great stop at the end of the day, I started catching crappie on BG Ghastly Minnow and Outlaw <br />Special On 1/32 oz jigs. They slowed so I went to Cajun Cricket followed by BG Scent Wigglers in <br />Ghastly Minnow, this fired them back up again. I caught 15 nice crappie here. I had only 1 crappie<br />over 14 in., but had 77 keeper crappie. Quit at 5:30. All fish released.
