Thread: Wanting to catch crappie

Be patient in waiting for a response. My wife and I fish from bank also but don't do well until we fish from the docks in late fall thru early winter.
Have fun and turn to the forum often. The more specific your question the better answers you'll get.
Good luck and above all else have fun!

Thanks for the advice. I'm just wondering if the places I listed are good places for bank fishing. I know not all places are created equal. I would mainly be fishing from spring to fall if that even matters.

Crappie need cover whether deep or shallow which is why I mentioned the docks for fall and winter.

Docks around here are in fairly shallow water and get pulled out for once the weather starts getting down to freezing temps. Where are you from?

I have fished all of those lakes but from a boat. Odessa at the upper inlet area and the lower outlet area would be best from shore and limited, shallow and busy sometimes. Darling or Seguma would be good and at Seguma check out the ponds. They are state owned and I know a lot of fish come from there.

Awesome! That's the type of response I'm looking for. I know you said you fish from a boat but what area at lake darlin should I concentrate my efforts from the bank? Thanks a bunch!!
