Crappie Fishing Report Date: 07/28/08

Crappie fishing is fair... - Crappie are holding on deep brush and stumps, pretty much still on their summer pattern. The bite really slows around 10:00 am when the sun gets high and hot. Working structure in 14 to 16 feet with a live bait bottom bumping rig is working fair. Work creek and river channel ledges looking for any structure and work it slow. This bite is better in the early morning and evening hours. A few good crappie are also being caught shooting docks in 8 to 10 feet of water. Also good fish are still being caught at night fishing the bridges at Cowan and Spring Creek... "Good Fishin"
