    Crankfest is where we fish for Crappie by pulling crankbaits, or pushing crankbaits. Traditionally the best method in the heat of summer. We call it crankfest, but you can fish any method you prefer. It's a good time.

    Unless something changes, Im planning on being there.

    Thanks for the info. All I’ve done for 20 years is vertical jig with 10 ft poles. I’ve been thinking about trying some trolling with crankbaits. Think I’ll try to make it down and talk to some of you for techniques, tips & gear needed. Thanks again.

    Thanks Steve! If this virus situation improves, then you can count me and my wife in.

    Slight change of plans.
    Appears the facilities at Steve's place are out of order and won't be operational during Crankfest.
    I have reserved Campsite 11 at Coon Creek Campground, it is a double site next to the facilities. I also volunteered to host Crankfest at my site.
    Bring food to share. I have a griddle similar to Steve's just smaller.
