This is my first post. I drove by Joe Pool yesterday and saw where the lake has reached far out beyond its normal banks. There were trees with maybe two feet of branches barely above water. Will this be lucrative territory for crappie to occupy or will they stay in their normal spots? Basically I'm asking should I be fishing those flooded spots from the banks now before the water recedes? Thanks for replies in advance!

welcome to the forum! I'd be willing to bet,they are really scattered right now.
