JPP Aug. 20, 2012 Crappie

[jaycee]

Went Monday AM at daylight, fished lower lake, seem to do better with larger crappie there. Fished 18 to 24 feet just off bottom around known structure that I put in the water and some other that I happened across.

My partner caught 19 and I kept 15, about one third others just short. Cleaned them for a Walter Hill Country Club fish fry.

I used a crappie magnet (Percy) and he used the kentucky rig with minnows. Weater was cloudy and cool enough for a hoody until the sun came out. Still shirt sleeve wonderful. Quit about 10 or 1030.

Got me a pair of the Shimano Evair shoes seen advertised to the right from Amazon at Murfreesboro Outdoors, about $10 cheaper. Iusually wear Crocs but I really like the Shimanos.

Way to go jaycee. I think next week maybe I will get to try my crappie hole. I think the water has cooled enough for them to move up a little.

Nice, I have been looking for them on my honey holes but no shows so far.

I may try OH tomorrow if the water isn't too colored up. That seems to really pin them tight to the sticks.
