Folks, I'm headed out next week to Lake LBJ for the weekend with the family. I wanted to take my 3-1/2yr old daughter crappie fishing. She absolutely loves catching fish. Anyone have any pointers or could get me headed in the right direction on where to catch some? I went last weekend but had no luck (although we spent most of the time bass fishing). I have only fished the lake one other time so I wanted to minimize the time looking for fish and get her fishing quickly. Lol, they don't have much patience at that age! Thanks,

i got my little girl onto bream using live worms with success. Otherwise, if you can identify a shallow bank-side area, proven to hold actively spawning crappie, I might go that route, using minnows under a bobber. If you're planning on boating (imaging, and brush-pile fishing), I'll defer to those here who have boats.

Do you have a boat? What part of the lake will you be fishing?
We caught a bunch of crappie on Sunday and Wednesday out there. This rain may change things a bit.

"Ahhh, yes yes...who has time? Then again, if we never take time, then how can we ever have time?"

I went a couple weeks ago and didn't catch anything. Good luck! Hope to go back next weekend.
