    Exclamation hello everyone! need help pronto


    Hello everybody. my name is james wilson. i have fished tournaments for many years with my dad, but this is my first year fishing them without his aid. i am fairly experienced but i am only 19 and have much more learning to do. my favorite lake is pomme de terre, primarily the pomme side, but this year i have started exploring the lindley arm some. i am fishing one of shockley's tournaments tommorrow, and i am completely lost. i havent been on pomme since his last tournament a month ago, and the water is completlely different. i have heard it is around 67 degrees and crappie are starting to spawn. many of my favorite spawning coves are probably going to be too muddy to tear em up tommorrow, so i was looking for some advice on certain locations or some kind of fishing report with specifics such as depth, surface temp, locale, kind of structure, quality of fish, male or sows, etc. any help would be greatly appreciated. oh by the way i am referring to crappie of course!

    Exactly, once you are out there and you land your first fish all the jitters will go away. You knowing what questions to ask like that tells me you'll do fine. Good luck.

    Hey JWilson,
    how did you fair at Pomme? I am Newbie to the site and I fish Pomme quite a bit. It's been a tough spring there.

    Hope you did well.

    well thanks everyone for your imput. i only caught a couple keepers but i had fun. i ended up having to quit fishing a couple hrs early, because my partner got nervous in the lightning but i don't think it would have mattered too much lol. i really like this forum so far, everyone seems to get along great and with some forums its not like that. thanks again guys.
