I been bored lately so I'm going to start trying different lakes in search for crappie. I went to this lake this past Friday morning , the lake had fog over it and could not see very far and needless to say I left my map book home so i had to rely on my gps to find my way.
I started out trolling in with some jigs and all i could find was a few small perch and bluegill, after a couple of hours i was ready to hit the road and came a cross a 15 ft basin in a cove area that was stacked with crappie. Most of the fish were smaller ones , i caught many fish and kept 25 for a photo shot and released all but 5 for a afternoon snack. The water temp was 70 degrees with water clarity stained and the colors i found working best was a lite colored purple and yellow/chartreuse , it was a fun lake to fish but i don't see my self going back any time soon.
this one was my biggest

It's good to increase your line up of lakes to fish. I do the same thing so that I have options depending on weather, etc.
Sounds like that lake was like Hudson. Lots of small whites.

Unapplied biblical truth is like unapplied paint...how many gallons do you have sittin' around? U.D.
A little bit bigger than Hudson lake. Nice catch is that lake off 131 before the sand lake area?
Three-fourths of the Earth's surface is water, and one-fourth is land. It is quite clear that the good Lord intended us to spend triple the amount of time fishing as taking care of the lawn. ~Chuck Clark
