Hello Tim, Welcome to Georgia Crappie.Com. We are happy to have you aboard. This time of the year is the best time of the year for a crappie bank fisher person . The crappie should go on bed on this full moon and the days following the full moon.You can catch them with jigs and live minnows. I am in Savannah and not in your area but we have quite a few anglers from central Ga. that post on this board and are willing to help you. Good luck and hope you enjoy your time spent here with us. When you go let us hear from you. Jimmy S.
