Thread: Missy update

Thanks for the update. Was planning missy for Saturday but looks like rain and from the sounds of it it doesn’t need any more rain.

I was out yesterday afternoon. I tried 3 spots east of 13. Caught 3 white bass no crappie. Tried spillway on way home and caught 10 to 15, only a handful had any size. Really hoping this warm sunny week gets things going. I have not done well at Missy since last may. I fished the resi this past fall and winter and struggled as well. Very unusual. Hope it picks up i need crappie fillets i am fresh out.

I hear you, I plan to go back out thursday after a few more warm days. Hope the water clears up too. Looks like a little rain Sat. then a cold front moves in, highs in low 50's next week.

Will do ! Plans are to go on a "scouting mission" Thursday morning if all goes well.

Im going to try and get out this evening after work and for sure tomorrow and friday. Not sure where i will start. But its supossed to get up to almost 80 today and has been in the 70s last few days. They gotta be biting somewhere.

Got out after work this evening. Headed up river east of 13 aways. Pulled in and seen 6 cars already there. Seemed like they were all fishing one particular bend. I went the other direction . I found some fish in one area, mix of white bass and crappie. Missed on a bunch of bites with the wind crearing slack in my line. Caught them on bobber and jig and then later on got some casting and retrieving a twister. I kept a dozen crappie 10 to 12 inchers. Ill be back out tomorrow with my buddy.

Got out this morning, river had cleared up a little and came down a little. Took a while to find them but had a semi steady bite, with a lot of down time in between. I took home 13 crappie most in the 10" range be a few 11 and 12 inchers. Seems like a lot of smaller fish this year. Had some white bass mixed in , but hit and miss, mostly small ones. Rain and big cold front after Sunday, not sure what it will do for the bite. Carry on.
