In my opinion lakes that are overrun with small fish don't have a heavy enough harvest.....
I am lucky with being able to stay on good fish with the etiquette or lack there of of a lot of the folks on the water right now.....
I'm not able currently to travel to a lot of the well known lakes and my experiences are from lakes in Texas and a couple in Louisiana but believe me I haven't seen a lake yet where changing colors didn't help me entice a crappie to thump my offering.....
I'm always on the hunt for a consistent bite from Slab Crappie, I'm constantly mentioning Slab Crappie because they are the ones that can be difficult..... Those small crappie can be caught most days on a soda pop can top......
