Question for the GURUS - 05/01/20 07:28 PM
Will there be another "wave" of shallow crappie to spawn like bass do ?
Or once they pull back they are done.

Crappie spawn in waves. When exactly the last wave moves in I am not sure. Right now you will have mostly post spawn fish with some last spawners still spawning. Most should be done very soon.

Disclaimer: I'm not a guru!!
TX being a big State, there's numerous different spawn patterns. Lavon and Hubbard are noted for extended spawn into May. Depending on water clarity, fish may be from 2-10 FOW spawning. There may be another "wave", but the fish don't have to move shallow this time of year to spawn. If I wanted to target some shallow areas, this week is a good time to be looking.

x2 Ken thanks for the guru info [he he] but you didn't have to let everyone in tx know this those 2 lake are crazy already. Not a guru either but from past experience I have caught big slabs[females ] in mid May. its about timing, and of course the wind.It already over 10mph. Good. luck
