Bite has picked up all along the river. The spawn is on! Matt: Two of my friends boated over fifty on Mcqueeney. Fish were in 4 feet of water! They were hitting on any color of jig you were presenting. They kept 30,released the rest. Also I did pretty good further east. Caught 14 from the docks. Shallow water 4 to 6 feet deep. All were 13 and 14 inch slabs. Chartreuse/pink and light green jigs by "Jig Em Jigs" were the baits of choice.

Went out last Sunday night with my son and a friend on his boat looking for some night time bass action. I had couple nice hits and my friend caught a of couple small ones. I had grabbed a few minnows on the way for some possible crappie action. Decided to fish for crappie under lights. We ended up with 7 keepers, 3 of which measured over 15 inches and one hog at just under 16!!

Under a slip float. Approx a foot off the bottom.

I was on McQueeney last Saturday with a buddy, and we kept 16 crappie, a bass and a cat. All on minnows, stacked up on a lay down in 4' of water. Lost a bunch, caught a few undersized. Left me biting because we were out of minnows. Went out yesterday in the rain, same creek, but rain runoff had dis colored the water, and the current was flowing. They weren't on that brush pile, seems they had moved over to lily pads in slack water. Caught 3 good ones, lost 3 or 4 solid ones, 1 of which broke my line. Going back out again this morning as soon as the bait shop opens up.
Team wolfs I had to perform. It took a minute to get it all in my mouth and another five to swallow it all.

And I might add that if I am able to find crappie, they are definitely spawning.

Caught over 50 this morning on Meadow. Kept 20 for the pan. Fish are in 2 to 5 feet of water. Found em next to brush pile ups and over hanging tree limbs. Jigs Chartreuse/pink worked very well. Watched a angler in a kayak fighting a huge catfish for about 15 minutes. The fish got off but was taking that kayak for a ride.
