Finally got to spend a day fishing with my dad. Between Work, deer season and family obligations we haven't got to fish all year, so we decided to hit the bar and I'm glad we did! Long story short we fished from 8am to 430pm. We caught 29 crappie 24 were keepers, with one over 14 inches and another almost 14, 7 10 to 11 inters and the rest 11 up to 14!! Best crappie day we have had in years. We also caught several small bass, 3 catfish and 4 drum. We fished mid lake area, most fish were caught on bg's in Vegas, monkey milk and bluegrass colors. A few on minnows but not many. Water was murky, they were pulling water which was key, when they stopped the bite stopped. We got em in tree tops, bluff walls and a few on docks. We never found them stacked, just one or two here, one or two there. We hit one dock where we caught several, it was a bonus I think!! Water was 49 to 51 degrees. Great day with my pops!
