Thread: Finding Crappie

If you are looking at locating structure that may hold fish, I'll suggest taking so time to troll crankbaits. I started out last year and had never been on Wylie outside of a kayak. So trying to find fishable structure, I would put out three or four rods with small cranks on them. Set the trolling motor around 1.2-1.5 mph and troll different coves and creeks. When you see something on the graph, mark it. I even make notes in my phone: Waypoint XYZ is in 25 FOW. This has helped me over time to become more familiar with the lake, on top of that it's a really fun way to fish.
Also, I'm a big data guy. So depth, bait colors, waypoints, structure, clarity and temp are all key in having productive trips. My advice, keep a log book. Even record the bad days. Anyway, just my two cents. Good Luck to you!!!

OK somehow I got elected to set this up. How about next Wednesday the 9th at noon. Creekside Restaurant on Hwy 1 just east of downtown at bottom of hill right by Twelve Mile Creek.
Let me know who's coming so I can get us a table.

I can’t make it at that time on that day. I travel Monday through Friday out of town with my job but am home most evenings by 6 (with the exception of a few per month). Thanks

Well phooey .Most of us old poots don't like to be out after dark. I actually work part time in the evenings except Friday. Any other suggestions?

Hmmmm if evenings are out what about a Sunday afternoon after church or I can let you know ahead of time when I’m working in Columbia(which is fairly often).
