Thread: Introduction And Lake Higgins Report

My name is Rick Joyner and I live in Stokesdale. Life long resident of this area. I have not fished much over the last three years but hope to correct that going forward. These days, I mostly fish the small city water supply lakes in this area. This past Wednesday, I fished Lake Higgins for about 4 hours and caught 25 crappie and 1 yellow perch. Water temp 42 degrees. All fish caught longlining jigs in 16' to 24' of water. Fish were on or near the bottom. Had 3 fish that weighed 1 lb each. I was well pleased as this lake is not known for larger size crappie. Kept a few for the pan. I hope to meet some of you on the water in the future.
