Checked out a lake this fall and marked a bunch of basin crappies and caught enough for a meal. Went back and did well again. Marked some spots for ice fishing, 25-30fow-I get that you can’t do C&R at that depth. Was pretty sure this would be a community spot, went out yesterday nobody was out there. Found out the lake has just tub sunnies, people were at the far north end and the south by the access. Went out to the spots I marked and saw nothing, dropped some lures down still nothing. Think those schools are still in or by the basin, do you think they were on the bottom, or off of a break? People were fishing ‘gills pretty shallow, those fish will probably shift to the basin later in the winter, right? Got a couple of crappies in 8-10” but not many, guys near me got zero.
Thanks
