tried hard today. Shirey is plumb full of shad roaming around in schools of 25 to 2000. Identified a train load of gar along with some whopper fish that I figure were silver carp but never saw any jumping. Caught 8-9 crappie none that I attribute to my Garmin. Never saw anything that appeared to be a crappie. One thing is that it never hit 9 feet in depth. I think in order to spot crappies you have to be somewhere they are abundant.
Crappie bite twice a day. 15 minutes before I get there and 10 minutes after I leave.
The two loudest sounds are a gun that goes bang when it is supposed to go click and one that goes click when it is supposed to go bang.
