Lathem res was never stocked with crappie, according to the lake manager, and any crappie in there were already in Yellow Creek when they dammed it. Today I finally caught one, a nice 14" crappie, while trolling a spinbait for bass. I was also long lining a pair of curly tail jigs, but I caught a spotted bass on that. Go figure. Only caught the one, but he will make a good sandwich. I'm going to continue to try and find some crappie on this lake, but maybe the numbers just aren't there. On the other hand, it is slap full of fat shellcrackers.
