    That's what I'm hoping mrdux just not sure water temp is going to be good bye may 3. Air temps are forecasted to be below normal for the next 10 days. Crappie should still be descent if the gill and redear aren't fired up. Will be fishing April 29th through May 3

    They're starting to creep up slowly into the shallows as of Saturday. The larger males are still staging in deeper water and won't move for another week at least. We did find one group of nests right on the waters edge, otherwise still scattered. Another week and a half and it should be getting good.

    Talked to a fellow yesterday in Ledbetter, and he said he had caught several bluegill. He didn't say how big they were, but while we were talking he caught a nice red ear.

    A little late but I found some really good gills in the stakebeds last weekend. Didn't matter what bay I was in, they were there. I also checked areas where I normally get them spawning but they weren't there yet. Popeye jig and waxie put them in the boat
