look shallow, if the water is stained , if the water is really clear ,,(because of a lack of rain), look deeper. this year, alot of fish spawned deeper in alot of areas they normally spawned shallow because the water was very clear. not many people have ever seen crappie swimming in the water out in the open, theres a reason for this, they dont like to be seen, they have predators from above also. I personally believe crappie will spawn as deep as 12 feet if the water is clear enough.
