Thread: Arizona Crappie????

Yes.. I know..they told me to fish deep here in ohio also the crappie go deep in cold water... I have not missed a week end since Christmas. up to today the air temp been around 34F. with 15 to 40+mph winds.. the coldest day was 18F. the warmest was 41F. the water temp been 35-39F for the last two weeks, we been catching 70+ every Sunday & again on Mondays.. most of the crappie are coming in 3 to 7 feet. under a cork, on the colder day there 5 to 9 feet deep..IT WILL WORK most crappie fishermen don't try it. because they read a book about winter fishing.. Good Luck..

I don't read books, I read my Eagle. I'm glad it hear it works for you, in Ohio,

Man, I definitely need to learn to fish better in the Winter. I understand that if you can find them in the Winter in our Arizona lakes you can really kill em'. I have been reading the posts from Art Chamberlain on the AZBASSZONE and it doesn't sound like he is doing to hot yet. What is going on at Rosy? It sounds like ever since the lake got way up the crappie fishing has been terrible in comparison to what it normally is.

Yates,

I tried your technique over the weekend at a small 15 acre pond close to my house and we did good on the bluegill but not specks.

Yates, thanks for the tip bro but all your quick wit won’t bring Crappie at Roosevelt Lake, AZ to 5’ deep.

There is Crappie information on Alamo crappie - AZBZ Forums
