Trolled crankbaits around Missy with my Dad last Saturday morning. If we had been in a Drum tournament we would have been doing good. We did not catch a single crappie!

LOL, This was meant to be in the Indiana forum.
What the heck? That kind of surprises me. I wonder if they are deeper right now? I saw a report some were catching them 12' to 20' right on the bottom.
Are you using any electronics.? One,,,I would search for a thermocline,,,and fish right above it. Two,,,use electronics to find baitballs and you will find fish. I also would try creek channels and edges of structure if you can see it in electronics.

Turn your sensitivity up on your depth finder till you see a thermocline.
I have a Garmin echomap 93sv. I wouldn't say I am very good at using it. I use it mostly to know my depth and speed. Any suggestions on how to find the thermocline?Quote:
