My folks live there & dad wants my brother & I to go fishing with him in his pontoon boat. (He's handicapped & can't go alone.) It's a pleasure boat, so no electronics to find fish with. I figure our best bet is to try for crappie when they are moving up shallow to spawn. (I'm recovering from shoulder surgery, so I don't think it'd be wise for me to fight anything bigger than a crappie.)
If anyone can give me an educated guess as to when such a window should occur, I'd be grateful.
After a lot of searching here & on google, I have a bit more to go on now. Joined the Virginia Crappie group on fakebook today so that's giving me something to watch for daily reports.
its occurring now. try throwing minnows under bobbers along shoreline in coves, shallow like 2 to 4 feet. Try different areas and coves. If no fish then try a little deeper, like 4 to 10 feet, working your way out towards the mouth of the coves if you still get no fish and moving your minnow progressively deeper.
