Welcome to the boards Richard. The crappie are spawning right now and have been for some time on Hartwell. If I were you I would fish the back of coves and creek runs. Use small minnows of a jig tripped with a minnow fished under a float 18 to 24''. Fish the banks or any structure you see in the shallow waters. You didn't say if you are in a boat or a bank fisherman. If a bank fisherman you will be limited to where you can fish but it doesn't stop you from finding some spawning crappie. This time of year is also a great time to pull out the waders and wade around the bank of coves where grass may be, you can catch a lot of crappie in the grass and a long pole comes in handy for dipping minnows or jigs into the pockets in the grass.
