Cedar Creek crappie report 4-1-12

The crappie bite this week has been fantastic. We are fishing 1/16th & 1/8th oz jig heads and slab bandit baits from www.crazyanglertackle.com our new favorite is the Texas Toast. For the last two years Ive only carried 2 colors of jigs on my boat. I am now carrying three, and thats saying a lot. I think these baits are great. Boat docks and brush piles are holding lots of fish. The bite is normally light but with a little practice and patience we can take you from novice to veteran on a jig bite. Most people move there jig so much that they never notice the bites. We start off teaching you to recognize the bite by holding the bait still and slowly adding the little things that will seperate you from the novice.




2 pounder released in hopes of catching her when shes 3 plus. Just something we've been doing for a couple of years now. Last year we released two 3 pounders in hopes of catching them again.


The bite is great! Call us today and let us take you on a trip of a lifetime!

Great report chuck

Nice! Wish I could afford it.

Lots of happy faces! Bet they'll be back!

I've used Chuck several times over the past few years and have another trip planned in a couple of weeks. He is a great teacher and I'll never be at his level but, feel it's more than worth it to spend a half day with him learning a little more each time we go out. Even if you are a pro, Chuck can show you the little things that make a difference especially here on CCL and in my opinion, it's money well spent for everyone that loves our sport.

Took Sherri last year and got to fish with Chuck and Lane; what a deal. We had lots of fun checking out piles that Chuck wanted to show Lane. Lots of crappie. I put Sherri up front right beside Chuck, and he had her catching fish in 5 minutes. Fun trip; you need to give it a try.

Hey Chuck...I notice that you've got several whaite crappie in your catches. I've been catching more whites this year than I can ever remember catching on CC. Are you seeing that too??

Guy we have been catching lots of white crappie this year. If you look back into my pictures from March we had some days that 90% of our fish were white crappie. Now that we are back to fishing the lake instead of the creek were catching less whites but still getting quite a few mixed in. I'll start paying attention to the percentage. Your right about not normally catching black crappie. I can remember not hardly ever catching them 6-8 years back.

Excellent photos and catches you have there. Next time I'm in the area, I'm calling your guide service.

great report and THE MIGHTY slab bandits in texas toast work great in our neck of the woods as well. keep up the great work !!!

Chuck I need to go out with you soon.
