    Ok, I guess this all came about because I mentioned the location? Um, just because we may mention a spot doesn't necessarily mean that the fish will still be there, and if you don't know how to fish that spot it's pointless anyways. Everyone locally already is at these spots when you pull up anyway. I'm reading this Alabama Game & Fish mag now and it is telling the local hot spots. Ha! I drive over 2 hours and hardly ever have a spot to myself. And then again, I'll pull up and they'll be catching fish and I won't get a single bite. It's all about how you fish it and knowing what colors work there. Half of the time I don't even know where he fishes, let alone care. I just enjoy being on the water personally. Crappie move so much anyways. They can be loaded in a spot for a few hours and then gone the next. Crappie are still spawning in waves where I live, so I can go where I want to go. I don't see the harm in mentioning good places that hold fish to out of towners like myself. Some of us are out to feed our families, not looking for a trophy. I wouldn't want to drive 2 hours to not get any fish. That sucks. There are plenty of fish in the lake. You're not telling people where the brush piles are, you are just simply letting them know some good locations. It's not like they are private anyway. People say they don't mind helping people catch crappie, then why all the secretive spots? I get it though. I had a friend of mine who used to say don't tell people where we caught those. And we went back 2-3 more times and couldn't buy a fish. I'm not afraid to tell people where I have success, so if you want to know, inbox me. I'll help you catch the fish we all have come to love. Some folks have never even caught a crappie, so I find joy in helping them do so. But I do fully understand your frustrations because I have driven over 2 hours to my favorite spot, but if you don't get there before midnight you can hang it up. Yall have a blessed one.

    I wrote earlier post when I was in a hurry to go to work. the reason I don't want to show the docks in a video is they are easily recognizable and when more boats start to fish them the owners will start hanging ropes and fence under them and no one will be fishing them. I do ask if you shoot docks, please stay off of the docks and try not to slam your boat into the dock or into th boats in the dock. If anyone comes to Tims Ford in Tennessee I will be glad to tell you what little I know about what the fish are doing .

    I would guess the fish he was on where bedding fish so it's just a temporary thing and that's probably why he didn't mind anyone seeing where he was. This is the main reason I wouldn't do a fishing channel or be a guide. If someone wants to learn I will teach them but if I get the vibe they just want to see where I'm fishing I'm done. We all spend a lot of time and $$ looking for places to fish and I'm not letting someone use me and wouldn't expect any of you guys to do it either. The shootist, I'm with you brother no need to explain

    I see it both ways I guess. Some of the most successful fisherman on here have told me exact spots to try. But maybe it’s because they know they have nothing to worry about. Lol

    Some fishermen tell their spots because they don't have time to fish it so they give it out to help people who are searching for fish... I will help people catch fish but not giving away my fishing hole.. If iam out fishing I see someone not catching fish I will always help them to catch fish if they are not catching any.. Don't use that excuses that they might know the spot but not able to catch fish because if they are on fire they will hit on almost anything... The person who comments on giving away spots because he too has a youtube Channel.. You talking about feeding family like they are Starving or something like catching fish is the only food they have. If I remeber right I think jiggah started a crappie club in facebook almost 200 member left the club because people didn't want to share imformation with him because even his oun buddies didn't want to go fishing with him because he would go and tell the whole world where exactly he was fishing at..I know if u watch a video u and a few thousand might knoe the spots but u don't have to tell the other thousands who don't.. There enough fishing pressure already.. Next crappie fishermen going to need 200 hp boats just in order to beat the crowd like these bass fishermen who can care less about us crappie fishermen..

    Great thread to read! I dont have any holes, just one public pond that I've caught some crappie in. They were stunted too. I'm new to crappie and dont have my boat lake ready yet either.
