I've been fishing a boat house at 12ft thats been set up with brushpiles. The crappie have been hitting at that depth for an hour 6:30pm-7:30pm for the past 3 days and then the bite turns off. I try shallow and deeper nothing.  I'm in a cove so do these crappie head out deep?

I have been fishing with minnows off a dock that has a light in the evenings. They seem to quit around 9pm or so. I just think they quit feeding, as you'll get subtle bites afterwards. Just my observations.

That's my kind of fishing too at night with a light. I'll give it a try tonight and see if I can't get them to stay after sunset.

They scatter to go chase shad when the sun goes down. You are probably catching them when they start feeding before they scatter.

If people understood what was important in life, there would be a shortage of fishing poles.
