Put in at daylight this morning and went to where I caught them a few days ago. They were gone... emoScratch I hit a bunch of docks from 3' to 15' (mostly shallow) and ended up with 26 crappie. Not bad, but only 4 were keepers. Scouted around a bit and ran into some fish in the jumps, so got out the ol' bass rod for a little more fun. Wound up with 26 crappie, 6 white bass, 2 largemouth (biggest about 2 1/4 lbs) and a bluegill. Outlaw Special and Bluegrass is what I was using. The wind was an absolute killer and I can't believe I didn't fall in trying to hang on with waves bringing the trolling motor out of the water. Water temp was around 74 everywhere I went and looks like they may have lowered the lake level a little, but not sure. See ya on the water.......Jim
