Around here on my local lake, the water temp was 75 degrees! It's going to be the 1st 2 weeks of November, as usual.
Probing brush for crappie is my game!

Yes. Feeder creek north of lake Lewisville. I started back up for crappie on the last day of summer. I have been 6 times from that date, and have been doing well every day but one. I cant tell you how many sand bass I have thrown back that were keepers, because I don't keep count on them. And I don't keep them because they don't clean as easy as crappie, pluss they don't taste as good. I usually fish from October to May for crappie in the local creeks. I stop fishing it in May due to the large amount of snakes, tall grass covers the trail from all the new spring growth. Plus that late in the spring the gar show up in large numbers. 
Did you see the size of that chicken?!.

Went again today and it looks like they are really moving in there thick. Shad are up n down the creek. Looks like the fish are following. Should be great fishing in the next couple of weeks.
Caught 10 keepers today all 11in n up. Jig n bobber 2-4ft down holding really tight to structure.
