Second nice morning on the water this week. Fished with #2 son (age wise) Wednesday morning and brought home 18 in 2 hours. Sure hated to leave , but work was calling him. Took #4 (youngest) son this morning and got another 18 in 3 hours, several more tangles and lost jigs and the front coming through last night didn't help, but still a great morning. We fished 6' to 10' of water mostly since they have a harder time catching the deeper fish. The fish have really put the meat on the past 4 or 5 weeks. Nothing over 12", but plenty of good solid 10" to 11" fish.
Did managed to put out 5 beds at a channel junction just outside of a good spawning cove in 10' or 11' of water. Caught 6 this morning off of a bed we put out back in the spring at a similar location. I'm thinking they should be some pre-spawn and post spawn hotspots.
Good luck to all who get to fish the tournament on Saturday. My Saturday to work again, but got to fish with the boys instead.
And to the elderly gentleman who is new to the area and crappie fishing, hope the few tips helped.

Great job! Hope the front coming through doesn't mess up the bite on Saturday.
