Fished Lewisville yesterday and the spawn looks like it will be over soon. Many of the egg sacks are starting to turn grey already or are starting to turn mushy. Still caught a nice mess for dinner.

You certainly did. Looks like their tails went through a paper shredder.

Tails got messed up because I had them in a wire basket.

I might be wrong, but it doesn't even seem like the major crappie spawn has happened out here on Sandlin. It's been a weird year so far with the temps and the amount of rain.

It has seemed to be weird all over or maybe it is just me hoping they hurry up and move on out to there summer pattern....Come on Fall and winter

Like it has been said, not a ever year spawn. Think the water color and temp has been to up and down. But, don't give up, from now until the water gets warm they will be shallow. Try some small jigs in 1 1/4-1 1-2 and stay with the shad colors. Most years after the April full Moon they will be 10-14 days that the big fish spawn. And they will be feeding on their own and blue gill Fry. Like asking a kid do you want peas & taters or cake?
