    Default Christmas Eve Crappie - Lake Livingston, TX


    My wife, youngest daughter, and her boy friend wanted to go crappie fishin today, but not too early of course. We put in and was up the creek at 11:00 and fished till 2:30. Had 22 keepers and 10-12 shorts, along with a 15 1/2" LMB my daughter caught and wanted to keep, the bass isn't in the picture though.
    Crappie were on brush, the shallow fish were in 3-6' of water about 2' off the bottom holding tight to laydowns, but most were caught on deeper brush piles, 16-20' of water and holding right over the top or slightly inside the piles at 10-15' deep. All but one keeper and two shorts were caught on jigs.
    I was kept busy getting jigs loose and re-tying, but still managed to catch a few in between as well. Had a really good day with them in the boat, kinda crowded with four in my 19' Tracker, but it was fun having my wife and daughter catchin crappie!
