    Fished Sangchris Thursday. Going over Tovey bridge in the east arm, ice as far as you could see. We stayed in the hot ditch. Strawkas ramp was mostly covered with snow and wouldn't have tried it without 4 wheel drive. Water was 52-54 degrees and like Crappie Scout posted, lots of fish biting. Caught around 200 but our keeper ratio was about 1 out of 15. Biggest maybe 11 1/2" Still fun and great to see open water.

    Looks like everyone will be at Sanchris once they read this. Maybe that's why so many out of staters were at Coffeen this last weekend?

    Don't know why anyone would come from out of state to catch 9 1/2" fish but if they do, they will be more than welcome. If I was them, I'd stop at Coffeen too!!!

    Well, I don't think I said anything about out-of-staters going to Sanchris, but I do know that when you put up posts like that, it'll be hard to find a parking spot at the ramp. I don't know too many crappie fisherman that like lots of boat traffic ...JS
