Tried up river today, around 1812/ Troyers bridge area. Water was high/flooded and muddy and moving fairly swift, nothing happening there. More rain and cold front coming, lake level still 10' over...

Ya with the lake and river flooded I figured the spillway, being the only option would be a nightmare. As much as I'd like to get down there and get a mess of fish; I just can't deal with the...

Lake level is 10' over summer pool and still climbing, looks like they are holding back somewhat , but still have to keep it flowing with more rain next week. Ugh, can't catch a break :banghead

no, just checked out the water flow. I'm like you, I hate going down there because a certain group of people will move in and crowd you out and just causes to many problems. Hoping to finds some...

Ya, with all this rain looks like the river is going to be a wash this year. Maybe things will turn around in May and I can get out on the jon boat. At this point I don't see them lowering the lake...

Not looking good. Lake is still 2' over summer pool with spillway discharge increasing each day making down river a mess. Hogsback and up river is a flooded muddy mess. Forecast up to 2" of rain over...

Mississinewa in Peru was around 50*F today at noon.

Ya they need to break it down by regions. It can be 90* and green in the south and 40* and snow in the north on the same day lol

Your spot on, seems like last few years been bone dry till April then inches of rain all at once with cold fronts and wind, finally followed by a rapid warm up. I saw a tom strutting the other day...

Looks like around 3" of rain over the next 3 day, then a temp drop and chance for some snow, a good looking weekend and more rain next week. None of can be good for the fishing, though the river at...

Awesome ! a real HOG !

I drove by this morning, water looks to be a few feet over winter pool and slightly stained. Was getting around 50* water temp a few days ago. Didn't see any boats out. Upriver was low and water was...

I got around 52* F at Mississinewa today around noon.

Once the weather clears up and warms up I plan to hit the main lake . The river bite seems to be all but done. Maybe the bigger fish are out there, I saw a lot of smaller fish caught this year and...

Went out this morning and covered a lot of river. water was clear and slow , A little higher than a week or so ago. Got into some white bass in small scattered groups and one nice smallie, but not a...

I plan on getting out thursday morning.

My next chance will be Thursday so I'll report back then. Any word from anyone on how it's been ? With the cold temps and wind I can't imagine it got better from when it was 70* and sunny, which...

Went to oaktree area Thursday and didn't do very well, water was a little low and bite was slow to nonexistent . Let us know how you did, hopefully things will get better soon.

Doesn't look like the rain messed up the river to much, be curious how the bite will be after this cold front. Plan to try again mid to late week, depending on weather.

* Just looked at weather...

Smaller size fish has been the norm this year for sure, I through back probably six fish for every one I kept. I remember reading that crappie have a 5 year cycle where you get 5 years of good...

This morning wasn't much better than Friday evening, picked up a few fish then long periods without a bite. Hardly anyone out Friday evening or this morning, guys leaving after an hour to go find...

Was a slow bite this morning, (kept 12 and had to work for them) then they just shut off all together. One by one people were leaving. Thought for sure the warm temps would get them moving. Going try...

Got out this morning, river had cleared up a little and came down a little. Took a while to find them but had a semi steady bite, with a lot of down time in between. I took home 13 crappie most in...

Will do ! Plans are to go on a "scouting mission" Thursday morning if all goes well.

I hear you, I plan to go back out thursday after a few more warm days. Hope the water clears up too. Looks like a little rain Sat. then a cold front moves in, highs in low 50's next week.

To the four or five guys still alive fishing and posting on this forum; here's the update. Water was slightly muddy to heavy stained, temp was round the 50* mark give or take a few degrees, water...

Looks like the crappie bite might be on next week, rains all done for a while and temps in the low 70's, if the rivers not to messed up the missy river should be a go. Plan to go on a recon Friday or...

Title made me think you were referring to Black Crappie.

This right here.

North central Indiana weather has not settled in yet. Rivers and reservoirs are muddy and water temps are in the low 40's. We need a week in the 60's with lows in the 40's with no...

42* here in northern part of state .
