Fished with George (Ranger-188-2007) today at lake Nac. I think we caught fish at every pile we stopped at. We even got the first crappie off of one of the new piles I just sunk. George got his first double on his tandem rig. If I told y’all that we caught them in 18-28 FOW it would probably start a riot, so I’m not going to tell you that. I’m also not going to tell you that some of them were caught on grass beds in 18 FOW. So don’t ask me, cuz I ain’t sayin’ nothin’! Most fish were suspended in the 10-15ft range, but a few of the larger white crappie came right off bottom. 34 keepers total with probably 15 throwbacks. Water temp was 65° with a hefty SE wind at 15mph and spitting rain. All were caught on jigs with crappie nibbles.

If you said it I believe it...but I think your graph may be reading about 15' off like someone else on here... hahaha... sometimes them fish will set residency in a new pile quick.


The driving force and secret desire of every bass fisherman, is to one day be a crappie fisherman............Could it be that the good Lord just smilies and looks the other way when a fisherman tells a lie?

Nice photos Jacob!

We ended up with about 35 good keepers today. My neighbor Doug had slab-o-the-day. The photos don't do her justice. She was a chunk.

George cleaned them. He said every one of them were females and the eggs looked like they needed another 2 Weeks.

Yep from the looks of them, I think another 2-3 weeks and it should be on. I think those fish were just staging almost ready to move up! Great trip. Now to save up for a spot lock!

abt 3 weeks ago, they were nowhere to be found, you were fishing shallow water, and nothing. after I told you to look deeper, even though you were skeptical, you did, and look what your catching.
the fish will not move shallower unless the water becomes very stained and nutrient rich.
look at it this way, they will spawn as shallow as can , or as deep as they must.
After many years of fishing spawn on several lakes, I have NEVER caught big males and females shallow. I call shallow 5 feet or less.
now you can whack them all spawn!! fish

COMING SOON! .. THE STICKLE HOOK " the stay level sickle hook". sits level in the water with all knots.! Provides better hook sets and more natural jigging motion. No more adjusting the knot, gluing , or tying loop knots that cause the hook point to tangle in the loop, or worse knick the line.. The jighook that will make all others obsolete !
