Summer fish depth?
Since the water has warmed up we catch most of the fish in areas with deeper water (30-75 feet). But no matter the actual bottom depth, most of the fish are caught between 15 and 20 feet. Now, maybe it only seems that way because that's where we have our hooks most of the time, but we do try deeper and shallower, but without much luck. Shad often darken my fish finder from 25 feet to the surface, and the crappie are often shown in the lower third of that area. Is this catch depth zone in the summer common to all lakes that have deeper water? Or is it a southern phenomenon?
Just trying to figure out those crappie!
