hey doc, I've only been fishing up here for a couple of years, but last year i fished Black Bayou Benton all the time cause it was so close and i could fish it after work. I live right by Palmetto Country Club. 2 minutes and im there, found a couple of crappie holes out there. Dont know that much about Cypress and have only been out there a hand full of times but I'll probably spend more time out there when the water comes up. I would love for u to show me around out there This year I've been learning my way around Caddo Lake, mostly bass fishing out there. Havent crappie fished much this year. Im in a 05 Basstracker grey and black, 50hp merc, white chevy with Directv and Dish Network logos on it. let me know when u wanna go
