With the mild winter....

Has anyone caught any crappie staging in 8'-12' of water yet.

I know it's really early but sometimes crappie do crazy things.

I keep on hearing its been a mild winter. Been pretty cold to me for the last 2 months LOL. I haven't caught any staging fish yet but have noticed not as many fish in the winter spots. I am thinking they are in transition to their pre spawn areas.

We caught some with egg sacs starting to form about a month ago. Haven’t fished since then due to covid, first my fishing partner, then me.

Just might be an early spawn in some places.

Yes on Lake Palestine

Yeap.....11 to 15fow was my best bite yestdy.....

Based on the 10 day forecast, the mild winter may be wishful thinking.

Its been pretty cold in DFW for months LOL

Same here. With the 4" of snow we received, water temps dipped to the upper 40s. Water temps in central TX in the upper 40s is cold indeed.
