    I fished rend today as well. Marcum was 59 at the start of the day and 67 at 5 when we left. We caught 24 today all in Jackie branch and all in the brush. Problem is everything I'm catching is 6" to 8". Not sure why I'm not getting into the bigins. I'm new to crappie fishing. I figured maybe the males move in first like bass fishing. Any feedback is appreciated.

    I'm taking a couple friends back out Sunday. Maybe we can get into the big ones then. Hopefully this warmer weather will ft them going.

    4/25 Sandusky north shore (out of the wind) WT 62-65
    Only 7 keepers. Lots of little. All dark males. All in less than 2fow.
    They seemed to be identifying with the bigger standing trees and laydowns rather than the brush.
    Probably should have tried rigging 2 down in 5-6fow out from the trees but didn't.
