Had an excellent Saturday up there icing about 50+ crappies for 2 guys. Went out of Hillmans access and crossed the ridge and setup in 14ft. 2-4 pm was the prime time of the bite in this area for us. Small glow jigging spoons by far out produced the standard glow jig/minnow and jig/waxie. Jig aggessively until you “see” fish on your locator and then slow it down to a dead stick and wait for them to come up and inhale the spoon.
Get away from the crowds as usual here and your success went up.
2-3 fish ran a honest 14 inch. otherwise the majority ran 11-13 inch. Where can a guy go and get average size crappies like this on a consistant basis. What a blast!
