Nice work. I was out yesterday evening too but didnt do that well. What were you throwing at them?

 

Mostly bare jigs and minnows. We ran out of the 5 dozen we had and switched to tubes at the end of the day stuffed with crappie nibbles. With the tubes they were pretty picky on the color chartreuse and white were the ticket, they wouldn't hit anything darker.

 

Ok thanks. I was using a white road runner but def gonna give the tubes a shot tonight.

 

Man that looks tasty, I wish I could get my motor runing and get out there! If you need a partner sometime just let me know, Im right down the road on the SE end

 

I just started catching females shallow in the middle sections late last week. Up until then only males. Eggs in the females weren't oozing so this weekend sounds about right. Wonder what the weather will do to em this weekend.

Ironically I caught many over 10 as well but no fish ohios in 5 trips. A whole mess of 12.5 inchers too. Not complaining just a coincidence.

 

FWIW - couldn't get them to touch a roadrunner all day. Didn't like the look/blade. We used regular 1/16 and 1/8 jigs all day. We caught a pretty good mix of females with eggs and males as well as a good mix of whites and blacks.

 

Nice mess of crappies right there. Are you or shaun fishing the delaware tourney tomorrow?

 

I will be fishing with Ron Laramer. You going Terry?

 

I found crappie all the way up into one foot of water yesterday at delaware. I think the females are layin deeper tho cuz all i caught were males

 

I was out yesterday in the middle section and caught about 40. Only kept 12 between 9.5 and 12.5 I used a chartreuse tube and the wife used a red with chartreuse tail tube and she probably caught twice as many as I did. We were in LOTW.

 

was that in delaware or Alum?

 

I was in Hoover

 

I will be fishing with Ron Laramer. You going Terry?

Yep, my partner this year is Steelhauler...making the drive down from the Cleveland area.

 

They were biting well, caught about 8 under 10"; caught 30 in the 11" to 13" range. Hoover looked like it was down a couple of feet. Is this normal this time of year?
