    Was talking to a guy today at New Albany that was telling about a 80-100 acre lake somewhere in the Prentis/Alcorn county area calling it Hurricane watershed . Anybody heard of this ?

    Yessir, when I had a smaller boat I used to fish there some, if thats the one I’m thinking of. Had a little store and a concrete boat ramp they charged a few dollars to use.
    Caught some nice bass and bluegill there, but never the first crappie.
    Can’t think there aren’t any, just couldn’t figure it out.
    Off Alcorn county road 400, NE of Rienzi

    Members met and fished Davis Lake years ago. Lots of bass a few bream and catfish, no crappie. It's on CR 124 east of New Houlka.

    Davis is where I first got hooked on crappie fishing. There was a time, mid 90s you could catch 30 10-11 inch crappie every trip, year round once you figured it out. Then they drained it to fix the spillway and been screwed up since. Yep lots of 6 inch crappie.

    I've fished hurricane a few times and it has plenty of crappie. The only problem is the average is small. I've heard a few stories of big crappie coming from there but not my experience. Watch out for the stumps in the edge of the trail coming out from the ramp to open water. It is a shallow watershed for the most part with lots of vegetation in places. No cost to launch of boat the times I went. That store had been closed down for years looked like

    Thanks Bigyeti for the reply.
    Guess if you like small crappie that would be the lake along with Davis to fish. 30 might make a meal.

    Davis is a good bass lake . There was a 16 lb. caught and hung in Clays bait and tackle in tupelo . Such a shame that Clay died of covid the initial round . To make ends meet he began selling bbq at the store and thus "Clay's house of pig" was born . Clay mounted that bass for someone who could not afford to have it done . It was to hang in store till the guy could pay him for it a little at a time . Great man gone way to early .
