We are going up to the BIL's cabin on Big Green Lake Thursday through Sunday. How's Big Green for crappie or any nearby lakes? Thinking about towing the boat up if the crappie were doing any thing.

no idea but the cold weather has the smallies preparing for winter by getting thick!

Puckaway and Fox lake will be your best two crappie options near by or the backwaters and eddies or wood on the wolf river to the north.
the Fox Lake Crappie population has been decimated for a couple years due to over fishing. It used to be one of the states premier crappie fisheries though.

Pounded absolutely! Gone absolutely not. The fish are more scattered and schools are much smaller but the average size is much better.Originally Posted by b*******51
Thanks guys. Not taking boat now. cooking out, drinking some cold ones and the family style fish supper at Lake View on Little Green..We have used Norton's and Walker's for lake trout quite a few times and would highly recommend both.

i didn't say gone...it certainly is no longer a premier crappie destination any longer.
and Local16 if i hadn't just sold my boat I would invite you out on Green for an afternoon!

Sounds like a nice relaxing time! Could always bring a spinning rod and a jerk baits and cast of the marina docks and what not at night for some eyes.
Most definitely true but to me it makes it more of a crappie destination now since the pressure is overall down and the fish are bigger.
Thanks all. We had a great time and that area is really beautiful.
