Ernest: There's not going to be many small shad this time of year. Been a long time since a spawn. Crappie gotta eat something.
I think you missed the boat today. A video of you crappie fishing on Lake Lewisville in these snow flurries would have been a classic.

Any fishing I do in snow will be in the marina under cover. In the past maybe I would but not anymore.

Well it warmed up a little bit this afternoon so I just had to go. Only caught a few but they were nice ones. This wasn't the biggest, just the first. Going again early tomorrow.

Today was pretty cold but electric heater did the trick. Stayed about two hours and landed 11 nice keepers. Guy, Rick and Pat were doing about the same. (But I had the heater)

It's still working. I rarely fish with anything smaller than 2.5" now. May have to change when the shad fry start to schooling around the cover.
When casting the shore for scattered spawner's I was using 1/16 oz road runners. Changed to 1/4 oz and caught more fish and they handle the wind better.
