Hello crappie fisherman. I'm new to this forum and started fishing at Toledo Bend several times. I'm still amaze by how big this lake is. I went out on a small Jon boat on Tuesday 17 Dec 2014 to fish deep for crappie. I didn't have a depth finder but I was using the Navionics map on an Ipad. I started at the Pendleton Bridge main channel pilling and worked all the way back to the first pilling on the Texas side. I had three poles drop shop rig with live minnows. I didn't catch any crappie but end up with three annoying small channel catfish. My next trip will be the chicken coop I have heard so much about. I hope the water will drop below 50 degrees soon. Any advice from this forum be great.

We mainly chased saltwater fish the years I lived there to keep the

happy as she prefers eating saltwater fish over fresh water fish, having grown up around the ocean.
I'm happy just fishing, regardless of what I catch but I do prefer eating crappie over other fish.
