    Default West point


    Coming down to West Point April 1-8th, will the spawn still be peaking or on the decline by then? Thanks

    I'll be there the week before you. I'll let you know how we do. We go every year on spring break and last year they had just moved to the banks so I'm hoping we will be fine.

    I was there MAR 26 - 30 and didn't have any luck shallow with minnows. Maybe it was because of the rain they got on SAT. A couple people at Southern harbor marina said it was a long steady rain and might have changed their pattern. I was at Wehadkee, Stroud, and Vassey creeks, and never saw a crappie. The water was warm on the last full day I spent there (WED). I think in some places it was around 72 degrees. Maybe that will put them back in the spawning pattern.

    Best of luck.

    Westpoint is a very clear Lake you have to use lowe vis 4lb line and they can be picky on jig color . I never use minnows so that might have been you problem. I'll tell you one place we caught a few in veassey, that big pine tree across the boat ramp at the day park.

    I think I was there once or twice... had to check on the map, I think I spent more time on the other side of the park though... caught a couple blue gills there, but not much else.

    Do you mean low vis green line or clear/blue? What brand.... spiderwire or stren? I used a couple jigs too... electric chicken and popsicle, but they didn't seem to like those colors either....

    What time of day did you do most of the catching?... looks like it was later in the day?

    Yes low vis green, we caught a lot on black and chartreuse tubes and a mix of other stuff including some of my hand tied jigs.
