David and I put in at 9:30 at WT. We made a long run to fish main lake docks. Cloudy skies till about <br />lunch gave way to a burning sun. It took a while before we started catching crappie then we seemed to <br />be get a few fish on every stop. We were throwing 1/32 oz. jigs with BG baby shad in Outlaw Special and<br />Ghastly Minnow. Most crappie were in 6-10 ft. of water and hit on a 2-6 count with a steady retrieve. We <br />could not get away from the catfish, David and I landed 9 channel cats from 1-4 lbs., and they thump it<br />just like a crappie. We found one dock where we caught 4 female crappie all full of eggs. David had one an<br />1/8 in. short of 14 inches. Went back to the creek where we ran into heavy boat traffic, it did not stop us,<br />we still caught crappie. We talked to cuonthelake in the creek, she was looking for a place to fish too. Hope<br />you found em Candi, that was alot of boats and seadoos to deal with. I bent my prop on a stick, I&#39;m surprised<br />I went this long without it happening. The fish in the creek looked spawned out. We finished with 46 keeper<br />crappie, all released. A very good day considering the lack of crappie reports lately.
