Right now, I still consider here in Indiana we are still in a late season,winter time pattern. If we get some warm weather, it will change for sure. 2 weeks ago water was approaching 50 degrees on our big water lakes. This week, it was down to 42 2 days ago. Fish are kinda funky with the up and down of those temps. If your going to fish for crappies, small hair jigs, or small Road runners with your plastic baits that you can dress up with nibbles, or minnows, fished slow to a craw will work in this cold water. Most reports are showing crappies caught in 12-25’ of water were being caught 8-14 ft down on flats, long points, right next to deep water or Creek channels. You might try long lining at a speed of anywhere from 0.3 to no more than 1.0 using different weights of jigs/road runners from 1/32 oz to 1/8 oz experimenting with as much as a good cast out from the boat (65’) or so. Try spider rigging jigs off the front if you have rod holders with a 3/4 oz weight about 3’ above your jig or jig/minnow combo. A lot of the guys that walleye fish your lake are waiting on the water to,stabilize as they been letting out to get it back to normal pool and it’s about there. I also have snagged walleye on Monroe and Patoka long lining the small same crappie road runners on 2 inch curley tail plastics and chartreuse and yellow/orange are 2 favorite colors that they will hit as well as pink occasionally. Couple of weeks this weather should break, your lake water will be more stabilized with them not pulling it out, and the water temps will climb to better warm temps. Keep your eye on the guys in the Indiana walleye forum as they are all waiting to pounce on the eyes, and watch for a few good postings on Indiana crappie.com for better fishing reports. Most everybody I know is waiting for it to break to get out and fish and are still sitting on their couches and just don’t care to fish muddy water. It can only get better with the change in the weather.
