Well i tried upriver this evening in the rain that came in earlier then expected. Caught a few crappie and white bass. Never really found em stacked but each eddy i fished seemed to have a few fish in it just not a bunch. I wasnt as far as the reenactment but close. Tried a spot downstream on way home and it was a bust. Wanted to give it a shot though because if we get all this rain it will likely be my only trip upriver this year unfortunately. May try below dam this weekend. Heard some are being caught there. If they slow the flow due to this rain it may be even better.

yea below the dam should be good after being up for a week or more. Should be alot of fish up there.

Fished MIssy outlet yesterday evening. Had a pretty good bite for crappie and white bass in the cove. Have to sort through some little ones though. Lots of people fishing down there. Last saturday was so bad there was hardly anywhere to park. And 99 percent of the people speak no english and dont obey fishing laws if you catch my drift. Ran into 2 CO's there yesterday. They wrote one guy a ticket for 15 fish over his limit. Sad thing is they said they cited the same guy last week. Im just glad to see then down there. Its getting out of hand. These people just do whatever they want its ridiculous.

I know its muddy still but anyone tried the lake recently for crappie? Its time for them to start heading toward the banks to spawn. Thinking about heading over this evening to give it a shot. Fished spillway twice in the last 2 weeks and probably caught 100 + crappie with 0 being keeper size so think ill try some spawning areas on the lake.

Glad i tried this evening. Got on the best crappie bite in some time. Aggressive males 3 feet from the bank and a few females. Brought home a limit of mostly 10 inch fish, had a couple close to 12 but most were in that 10 inch class. Threw back a ton of fish as well. Caught them on jig and bobber, casting and retrieving, and also on minnows. They bit the entire time i was there. There is a tournament this weekend so it will be busy. Son has varsity baseball tourney tomorrow anyway so me and him are planning on maybe sunday afternoon or late evening to hit it again.
