With all the things going on here I thought I had better take the opportunity to fish this morning so put in at Soddy about 7:30 and tried for some crappie. I&#39;m not finding a lot of crappie on docks right now and what&#39;s there seem to be out in the deeper water, maybe 10-15 feet from the dock, emoScratch I did manage to catch 22 by noon by fishing docks, deep structure, bluffs, and blow downs. Fish caught at all depths down to 25 feet.<br />Used BG MoGlo ghost and Cajun cricket for the most. I did manage to catch a couple that were just short of 14 and caught my 20th TARP of 2010.<br />That was my goal for the year so any more TARP&#39;s that I catch will be icing on the cake for the year. I intend to fish some during the month of<br />December so maybe I can increase the count. The fish are really in good condition for the winter right now, nice and heavy, emoThumbsup <br />I ran into The Wolftiever Kid today and watched him catch and release a really nice 15 inch crappie. I also caught a big drum, (DK, you would have<br />been proud) he was a little over 27 inches long and netted him with 6 lb Mr. Crappie line, emoTongue It was a good fight, emoThumbsup <br />Water temp was mostly 58* with very heavy overcast and almost no wind today, emoSmile Not many other boats but did get some heavy waves<br />from the 3 destroyers that were lined up going downriver, emoRolleyes
