I don't post a lot but wanted to give back the info when I can. we have been fishing all week, mostly at night and off the bank. catching around 20 keepers a trip out. lots of dinks. we were fishing about 20 feet from the bank at about 5-8 feet deep but the last couple of days they have really moved in. now they are about 5 to 10 feet from the bank and we were only a foot and a half deep. a couple with beat up tails but just a couple. I would say we are about 2 weeks out from them being on the bank. just minnows and crappie niblets.

Thank you to all the regular posters, lots of good info.
