from the DNR:

<<Lake Macbride (Johnson): Some crappies are being caught in 10 to 15 feet of water over structure. Crappies should begin to migrate to shallow areas if the water temperatures hold or warm up.>>

I had one great day at Macbride about this time last year fishing for crappies in 12-14 FOW in the vicinity of brush... followed by days of sheer futility. I'm keeping Macbride on a tight leash this year.

But it sounds like go-time is rapidly approaching.

There going, but the later in the day is better.

Weather might screw us up this weekend. Wind on Sat and it looks like Sunday might not even break 50-deg + rainy. I might just work this weekend and sneak out during the week next week when the weather clears up a bit. Depressing!

yeh, Solon was flooded this morning. Between the muddy water and the cold front, things sould be messed up for a few days.
