Questions about Fishing Shallow waters!
First I would like to say Happy New Year to everyone. I have a few questions about fishing shallow water.
This past weekend my pops and I went fishing in the Lake Des Allemands area and only caught 2 crappie. Now I know for a fact there are plenty of crappie in the area from hearing the stories from the local (veterans) However these old guys don't wanna let go of thier secrets so I'm trying to learn where to start.
I recently got a new toy from Mrs Clause for christmas which was a Lowrance x-125, and I'm trying to learn how to use it and what I'm looking at on the screen.
The depths that we saw were only from 3-9 feet at most (which was in the canals) Now once we got into the Main Bayou we saw depths of 3-18 feet with various drop off's.
Could someone offer me some advice where to start? Am I on the right track? I'm planning on setting out some Condo's (once I make sure it is okay to do so). Thanks in advance for your time and look forward from hear your suggestions.
