    Cleaned 15 12 inch males. 2 foot water casting to bank, caught a few smaller ones. They are still not on the nests too good right now.

    We started around 9 am and it was 62, by 2pm when we quit it was 67 and climbing. If you want some more crappie come on over to Clinton and if you don't have any spots we can give you a bunch of ours. If you have a Lowrance unit i can give you about 300 waypoints for brush. The brush is good for fall and winter, not so much during the spawn. If you wanna go sometime you can ride with me or bring your buds and we will try to put you on em. We are going again tomorrow and will stay for the late afternoon bite.

    Ended up with 20 today, all big ones, water temp started at 63 and hit 70 by the end of the day. Lots of bigger males and a couple with beat up tails. It is picking up nicely each day, gonna hit it again tomorrow.
