Thanks Fatcat for the info. Like I said I'm new to crappie fishing and will try LBJ again after these next few cold fronts pass.

Good fishing to you.

If your fishing on lbj the cold fronts are not such a bad thing the lake has a power plant and when the colder it is the less trafic there is if you have a fish finder there is alot of brush around the power plant to fish

I crappie fish LBJ primarily in the spring and summer, with mixed results. I can definately share some spots during the spawn. I have never tried the plant...do you fish around the discharge with minnows? I was told that the catfishing is good around the plant as well.

I fish mostly during the spring and summer and when ever I can in the fall and winter but this winter havent been able to get out much. I have juglined the plant outlet but only cught apps the dam is a really good spot for blues mostly fish for whites and crappie. techfish have you ever fished some of the big docks in the creeks

I fish alot of docks, but mostly stay around the Kingsland area.

Ah I see that you are from kingsland that must be nice we will have to get together and catch a few slabs

My buddy and I fished both bridges this past weekend with very few crappie caught. Did manage several nice LMB...one over 7 lbs. Tried the underwater lights, and just about every pillar there was, but just couldn't catch any slabs except two or three keepers. Not one white. I live in Sunrise Beach, can one of you fellas tell me how to get to the power plant and if there is a park or area close to it where we can launch a bass buggy? Any help appreiciated!

To get to the plant, go to horseshoe bay and turn right at the 7-11. it will take you right to the plant. turn right and follow the dirt road beside the plant. it will take you down to the water where you could launch a small jon boat, etc.

oh, if you are coming from sunrise beach you ought to turn left at the 7-11. I will be ready for the spring run!

Me and the wife will be out on LBJ this weekend I will be sure to let all you guys know what we come up with I made some need crapie condos this week and plan on droping them also. The funny thing is it is are aniversiry on sat.

good, i am putting together some condos for Lake Marble Falls. they have lowered the lake 9ft until mid feb. once it is raised, the condos will drop! we have a hole where we caught over 200 slabs last march and hope to give the "fins" some more cover.

What did they lower the lake for this time I new that they had done that after the flood but they had sence rased it to the normal level. So what now

they are letting dock owners rebuild their docks and or repair them. also some dredgework is being done. allows me to see what kind of structure/or lack there of...is in the lake.

Oh this is on lake marble falls guess I should read the hole thang. might have to swing by and check it out well be at lbj this weekend

yes on Marble Falls. I hope they dont lower LBJ. seems like everytime they do, it throws off the spawn.
