Went out this week on the Guadalupe River and got into some nice ones. Fish were located in a little shallower water. Caught em in 7 to 10 feet of water. Most of em were close to brush piles but I got a few away form brush piles and structure. The bite would also come and go through out the day. The water in some spots was stained due to a recent rain, but in other areas it was clear. There was good current. Most fish were released to fight again. Kept five for the dinner table. The color of choices on the jigs were pink/white and red/green. Getting a good Spring jump on the Crappie. It don't get any better! fish

Thanks "Gitter Done" and "Jig Man" for the replies. cheers "Gitter Done" I have always used jigs. Been getting great results and feel that there is no need to switch. Besides I am still learning ways to fish jigs and have a long way to go. eeks I have friends who fish with Minnows and have done super good this year. thumb Glad to hear that your pals did good on Canyon. Canyon has been good this year so far especially fishing the coves. During the winter the Creek Channels were good. fish

I will be fishing a down river from you later this week. I am hoping to find them up shallow since I fish out of a bay boat with no electronics. There has been no use in me looking for brushpiles. I just started fishing this part of the river a few weeks ago thanks to your posts but so far all I have found is a bunch of those 'green trash' fish. If I can make sure there are enough crappie to justify I will soon be adding a more crappie friendly boat to my fleet of 1.

Thanks for alerting me to crappie in so. Tx.

Steve
