    I scoped out the wilborn creek ramp yesterday and the water was really muddy. I’d head mid lake or south end to find some clean water.

    Fished last weekend, had a great time caught some really really nice crappie. Since it was warm and sunshine we caught crappie 2ft down in 10-20 feet of water around standing timber. We fished skull and wolf creek areas.

    Thanks for the replies. We went today. Water temp was 43.5 at 10 and finished up around 44. We fished the Wolf creek area. Only 3 other boats out. Had best luck spider rigging in 12 to 15 ft of water, fish were around 7 feet all day. Ended up with 10 under's and 3 overs. Big was 12.75. Over all it was a great day.
