No just looking for good info , like my first question was I bank fish and was looking for a good place to drag some out . Most of the time I would be on a boat but buddy sold his  . But it's all good just getting back on this board been a while . Like seeing what others in my area are catching, and on what type of lures.

I don't have any place I could share for bank fishing this time of the year. All my crappie have been in the 15-20' range hanging tight to brush. I will say that either white/chartreuse or purple/chartreuse crappie mags have been my go to.

Same here...no bank fishing for me unless I go below old hickory dam and walk the rocks and bank at the boat ramp. I'm a live bait fisherman when it comes to crappie, not much luck on artificial for me. The fish I've been finding have been shallower, but that's old hick for ya. It's hard to find 15-20 fow unless you're around the channel. Not saying the depth isnt out there, just saying the average depth is shallower than that.
Now, with the blue bird skies we've had and end of August weather, the crappie still have not grouped up real tight yet. So it's hard to bank fish for them in one area. And the schools that I have found are moving. They're not staying in one spot. Example: Friday, deezeltek and I went bass fishing that morning. We marked two or three trees that looked like there was crappie on them. We got off the water at lunch, he went to work, I grabbed a bite, and went back with a bucket of minnows. Those fish that we had seen and marked on my graphs had disappeared. So, I looked around in deeper water and no fish. Looked shallower and found some scattered. But could only manage 2-3 fish off a tree.

Bank fishing is doable on JPPriest when water level is at winter pool.

Since Priest has been spilling for a few days now, there should be all species of fish below the dam on the Stones river.

Not much of a report from this morning. They were extremely sluggish. We caught 10 Crappie with only 1 being a keeper at 11 inches. We downsized our baits and slowed down the retrieve thinking that would do the trick. Guess not. It was a nice morning to be out there and even talked with a few deer hunters that had killed a few.

My son and I put in at 7 points at 9:00 Sunday, yeah I know way to late, we spider rigged Suggs Creek with 6 rods baited with minnows for an hour and boated 1 short Crappie. We had dozens of light bites, so they were small or finicky. Then we ran over by Hole in the wall Island to our White bass spot and jigged up 1 15" hybrid, 2 14" whites, 3 Yellows in about 10 minutes with a 1/4 once CC spoon, and then they quit. Not productive, but it was good to get out.
