Our family has been at the lake all week on vacation. I had my two boys and oldest girl out trying to find crappie but the fish seemed pretty scattered - and their patience was wearing thin. I am guessing the crappie are transitioning into a solid summer pattern.

One thing that we did pattern pretty good were the bluegill – we found four or five great spots were the kidos would catch a fish with every cast. I would say 75% keepers ( close to 9” or over). Usually about 18” down in 3-4’ FOW – crickets did best, but worms lasted longer and worked pretty good as well.

It turned out to be a great week fishing – my daughter caught three good eatin catfish on her bobber set-up (4, 3 and 2.5 lbs catfish).

Thanks for all your guys help!
