    Went last Saturday from 7 til 2 and caught 8 crappie. All good fish but just not the numbers. Did have a personal best Black Crappie #2.4. I live 5 minutes from this oxbow and have fished it all of my life, I'm 58 and the last two years are the worst I've ever seen on this body of water. I don't spider rig, that was single pole and livescope. Even with the scope I didn't see a whole lot of crappie

    Nothing on bream, bar fish were on the roadbed going to Giles Island but it's getting shallower day by day. River is falling a foot plus every day so should be some moving water somewhere. Jet skis and pontoon boats had it rocking this past weekend though. I have a bass tournament over there on the 10th so hopefully I'll have a bass report after this weekend. Water still a little high for bass for me

    I appreciate the info, I live around Jena and it is a way for an old 77 yr to go. Plus wife is 84. But we love fishing there. have caught may many barfish there over the years. They are super fun. and not bad eating either.

    River on Natchez gage around 43 to 40 has been really good for catching them over there. For me anyway.

    Concordia on the other side of the levee from Old River at Minorca, is the bream and bluegill place. Crickets or worms easy peasy. Crappie on the other hand are harder to find, at least for me.
