Thread: Taylorville yesterday 2/19/17

Started at 8am, water temp. 48º with a South wind of 6ish mph. First area we fished was a 12-14' deep small brushpile. Bite was slow at first but once we figured out pumpkin seed /chartreuse crappie thunder was the ticket the bite picked up. We picked off about 12 or so keepers off that brushpile before moving on. We tried some shallower stuff with know luck so we hit another brushpile that sits in that 12-14' range. This one being a little bigger in size. It was one of those days were you would lower jig down see line go limp thinking your on bottom, then lift up and feel the weight of a fish on the other end. Other times you would lift it up a foot and have to let it sit still for a couple seconds before you would get a strike. We ended the day at 5pm with a two man limit when it was all said and done with several getting close to 12"s

Yes cre73 I was very surprised at the way the the bite turned out. I'll fish till lake freezes over than allot of years not get back out in boat till back end of march. Glad I went out.
