Hope everybody is well and the only fever ya have is that good ol' Fishin Fever... my buddie's boat is still getting worked on, so we went and stomped around the banks at HD. NO crappie to be had at least from the shoreline yet. Hit Wade's Branch (shoulda stayed there as the water seemed to be the warmest), Spoon Creek, HD Point and a cove off of the Tontzville Bridge. Caught a mixed bag of Large Mouths and White Bass.. nothing schooling, just random fish here and there. I hope we keep this warm weather and can get into the crappie REAL SOON!!
Stay Safe and Healthy

Next week, (week of 4/27), you should see crappie entering the coves close to shore at Hillsdale. I would fish the West side, near the camp ground, off the rocky points. I've been catching plenty of crappie, from the banks, on smaller surrounding area lakes for the last two weeks. Yesterday, when the sun came out, you could see the crappie next to the shoreline from Douglas Co lake. Wife and I caught more than 30 and cleaned 10 in 2-3 hrs time. Shore fishing has been so productive I've left my boat at home
