Will be going Crappie fishing at Kaw lake for the first time ever this weekend. Can anyone suggest what part of the lake to look at? What depth are the Crappie holding at this time of the year? Any pointers would be appreciated. Thanks

Common sense isn't always that common!
Not good but the fish never bite good north bummer.next page
All ramps from Sarge creek north are iced over. Ice line today runs from just south of Sarge creek and everything north of sarge is solid ice. Only open water is in the main lake. Lot's of eagles setting on the ice.
IceNitro thanked you for this post
Were you in a red lund boat .i was there in white boat .tough day
No getting some service work done on the boat while we are iced over. Lake opened up a lot yesterday. Sarge ramp and north is all open water today. Ice line moved north toward Washunga and west toward coon. Thicker ice is around coon and north of Washunga bridge. Open water is clear and cold. Water temp around 32 to 34 deg.
Im hoping ice melts north crappie are there its a real sleeper .love me aome crappie and okra
My buddy Bill was in a little red lund boat with DTF Outdoors sticker on it. He got his limit in a decent amount of time.
A odd day out Saturday. The fish I found on my last trip had moved out. The first two fish were 25 lb blues. Could catch little crappie in many places, but I was not interested in dinks. My big fish places were only spotty, the piles I checked seemed to only have little ones so I went on the prowl and checked out a new part of the lake for me. I was very impressed, Kaw continues to please. I didnt catch many fish but marked a bunch of new stuff that had great fish on them (included a sample pic). Problem yesterday was that they just would not tolerate the boat shadow at all! The next pass over those fish in the first pic had only 3 fish left! I really think the big Blues are tearing into the crappie right now and any large shadow have the crappie high-tailing it out of there. I have never seen fish this boat shy before, they were even like that in 10 inch vis water. I started throwing markers and coming back an hour or two later and keeping the boat shadow away from them. Next time I am going to get minnows and slip bobber them from a distance after I throw markers using side scan from a distance instead of driving over them and marking with down scan. How I wish I could have fished those stumps without spooking the fish off. From the image all the fish looked to be that size. Oh, ended up with 15 good fish, largest right at 2lbs.
