Saturday, Dec. 10th

Florida Crappie Club - Classic
Lake Crescent
Crescent City, Fl.


As usual this time of year Lake Crescent does not like to give up her
Crappies (Spec's) without making fishermen work for them.
Weather through out the week leading up to Saturday had been sunshine,
skies somewhat cloudy, temps in the mid 70's to low 80's. No fish of any
size were reported - which met a good thing, those catching were not
telling - the weather was going to change - rain moved in on Friday, temps
dropped into 50's, wind started doing crazy thing - coming out of the
North - Ne & east, right down 16,000 aces narrow Crescent lake's 9 miles
By time waves reached south end of Bear Island they were white capping
at 4ft plus. Saturday outlook was starting out in high 30's - low 40's with
high of 60, wind out of North - going to Ne & E at about 8mph - up to 17 mph. (She didn't - pretty much on target - made for some tuff fishing and
nagigating )

Twenty-nine (29) teams went after the these Crappie's, this was the
Classic - This is what teams had fished 19 tournaments to get a shot at
this lake.
