try some night fishing! You can beat the heat and almost no traffic!

Went out night fishing last night. Caught about 40 Crappie, unfortunately they were to small to keep. Only saw 3 other boats all night long, and that on my way back to the dock. Pretty much had the lake to myself, at least the portion of it that I was on.

I found black crappie on the shady side of points on the weed edges (natural lake) Been casting a pink nailtail (very small setup) in clear water letting it sink beside the weeds - mixing my count from 6 to 15 "seconds/Mississippis" and pulling it as slow as possible back to the boat. Hits are extremely light so a sensative rod is a must. It is a nerve racking watching and feeling for bites, usually my rod tip just starts dragging a bit, like I'm touching a weed, I "pull off" and find its a fish.

Btw they hit the nailtail, but won't touch a minimite... I don't know what's up with that.
