i dont know what the rain has done to stumpy and fishing crk, but wateree yesterday was perfect except for the wind howling down the middle of the lake. there wasnt many small boats out there and the one i did see must have his insurance paid up. the guy was striper fishing like we was and not crappie. this feller was in a small boat and every once in awhile wed get a glimpse of him in the swells. we dint take nothing to crappie fish with so we wouldnt be tempted to give em a try if the striper wasnt cooperating. It would have been too windy to drift even with two socks out and you could forget using the electric unless you was in the slack water of a cove upwind somewhere. We did see two guys who was taking out when we was who put in as we did yesterday morning who somehow managed to catch 20 nice crappie and 5 stripers drifting in a cove somewhere. weve been down to wateree some here lately and all the crappie fishermen is telling us the same thing. they catching an unusual amount of stripers while they are fishing for crappie.
listen with your eyes---its the only way to beleive what you hear...
