14Ft or Deeper

I hit the Jourdan River today to see numerous other Crappie Anglers pounding the banks. As I moved around most were fishing shiners 2ft under a cork. Since I was catching fish I didn't fish where others could see what I was doing. I kinda feel bad as I told fellow CDC member P-Nut that was a good plan where he was going fishing today. I hope he had better luck than the long faces on the guys I watched fishing. All the quality fish in the box were over 14ft deep. If I fished 9-11ft I didn't catch even a small keeper, 12-14ft I had to weigh having fish to fry or not with the keepers from that depth, the fish over 14ft deep I had to get the net. BGBS (Bobby Garland Baby Shad) in Eclipse did the catching. I also saw several schools of small Crappie in 18-20Ft of water moving up river. A good sign since the Saltwater Intrusion damage happened last Fall.
