    Default Green River


    Finally had a day I could get on the lake. Flew back Friday from Mexico, and decided to take the wife fishing. Got started at 7:00 AM and finished at 5:00 PM. Caught 10 fish Green River, now I’m not the best crappie fisherman, but not the worst. I could found a few, but could not get them to bite. Used jigs and minnows, no luck. I believe this was my worst day fishing green.

    We all have days like that. But, let's be honest. If it's a competition, Littlejohn is probably the worst Green River

    I've went to green when everybody was limited out by 11:00 under the 30 fish limit and released the keepers I had because nobody needed them. We all have days like that.

    I have seen that a couple of times in the pass couple of weeks. Have to hit them in the head to get them to bite.

    JRJ, I've been there. I drove 8 hours to fish a lake for a week. 1st day I found about a 5 acre area in a bay the 1st day with crappie. Caught a decent crappie about every 5-10 minutes until we caught our limit of 30 fish each. Man, I thought I had a 'pattern'. Went back next day, same area, tried the same depth, same bait, weather had not changed much, but nothing for 3 hours, and only caught 8 fish in 8 hours. So, just when you think you've figured them out, they slap you in the face. I finally had my best luck fishing with minnows 2-3 feet from bottom in deeper water (>6ft) during this trip. Found this is my last resort in most cases when things got tough and they are NOT on the banks.
