Didn't do as well as you, Greenfish ... but, my partner and I probably boated around 20-25 fish - with 6 nice keepers (9-12"). I'd say 90% of the throwbacks were 8.75" long :D -- that bodes well for next year !!
Most of ours were caught casting to blowdowns that stick out into 15-25ft of water ... but we did catch a few others, Vertical Casting some standing cedars, and around the deep ends of the blowdowns.
We caught them on several different colors ... but, green/char & blue/char seemed to be the most favored. Most of our fish came from around 8-10ft down, and towards the deeper ends of the blowdowns.
We fished from daybreak til around 2PM. Lake looks in good shape - still at Summer Pool, relatively clear and clean (not muddied up from traffic or flooding), and the surface temps seem to have cooled off a bit.
The Crappie I cleaned had Shad remnants in their stomachs ... looked to be about 2 to 2.5" long. Most of our hits were pretty strong - some even jerking the rods down - but most were definite "thumps", and not "tics". Most of the time, the jig was totally inside the fish's mouth.
As the days get a little cooler & shorter, and the nights get chilly & longer ... the Crappie at Taylorsville should really start putting on the feed bag. They seem to have been feeding pretty good, so far this year, as most of our fish (even the throwbacks) were healthy & chunky.
We did not see any schooling jumps activity from the White Bass & Hybrids ... even though the Shad were schooled up and near the surface.
