    What Do You See

    Help me interpret what I am seeing:

    What do you see in pics 1-4, what is bait and what is crappie/bass?

    Pics 1 and 2 look like a triple echo of a rock pile with crappie hanging out.
    3 looks like a double echo of crappie feeding up on a school of bait fish.
    4 looks like some larger fish (maybe bass) moved in to feed up on the bait fish.
    Crappie picking up the scraps near the bottom.

    Throw the rattle trap or spoon in there!

    Thanks that was what I was thinking.
    I have been playing with 2D/DI Fish ID ON/OFF to try to learn more.

    I have been seeing a TON of things like on screen shot 4 now that the water is cooling down. Bait everywhere and marks that I thought had to be either Bass or Stipers, BUT I have NOT been able to catch anything in those situations. I am trying to figure out if its my interpretation of what I am seeing or my lack of ability to catch fish OR both.

    For images 1-3 situations I have verified the fish to be crappie by drop shotting a Gulp minnow or small swim bait on them. Image 4 I have had little success.
