Went out yesterday in the boat for a change. I tried for some Walleye, but could only catch one 4-5 lb Catfish and 12 nice Crappie. Caught Crappie everywhere I tried. Maybe I am just suppose to be a crappie fisherman, you think! I fished off points and ledges and drifted the flats with Minnows, Night crawlers, and leaches. Only caught Bluegills and Crappie. Probable caught 25 crappie but only keep 12. Water temp is 55 degrees here but I don't think the lake has turned over yet. Went to my favorite dock and caught several, 5 ft in 14 ft of water, using a dead minnow. Fished with minnows and the bite was slow. Grabbed a dead minnow up and decided to put it on anyway and got a 12 incher right away. Started using the dead ones and started getting hit a lot more. My buddy kept using the live minnows and only caught one fish all day. Guess they wanted it dead still.
