My wife is from Macon, Georgia and lived on Lake Sinclair at one time. From her descriptions, it must be some wonderful crappie fishing there. She is up here in the Land of Lincoln (Illinois) where we are experiancing below zero weather. This is her 10th winter up here, so you would think she would get used to it but it hasn't happened yet. LOL.
From her descriptions, there is a lake around that area that had alot of cypress trees growing in it that had wonderful crappie fishing in it. She said they used to pull some huge crappie from around those cypress knees. And, I bet you don't havve to break ice to fish them this time of the year. LOL.
