I decided on a whim today to head over to Cedar Creek and crappie fish. Why is this a whim, you ask? Well, I typically hang up my crappie rods (quite literally, I have a very nice rod rack) from May until late November. I usually chase catfish during summer and fall months. However, I had a hunch I might could catch some crappie on submerged brush and there was a taste of fall in the air, so I gave it a go.
And limited out!
I concentrated entirely on the east side of Britton Bridge and mostly around the bay where the powerlines cross. All caught on white and chartreuse tipped with a tuffie or a slip bobber with a tuffie in 12-14 FOW. Caught 49 total and took my 30 fish limit home.
It was an all-around perfect day. Think I will try it again very soon!
