Got lucky today fishing.
In my boat, with livescope, 20 ft water,
In exposed stumps, 2” live minnows”, overcast sky’s, 8am till 11am, found slow biting crappie. Came home with 10 keepers, let 4 small go. Barely felt bite. 10’ crappie pole with braid, split shot and crappie hooks.
Fish were about 15’ + deep.
Only had 10 minnows, reused several. Tried several 1-2” jigs, different colors, no hits. Never fished this spot before but once a week I’m out there trying
Relative has lake house there so I fish often.
Guys don’t give up, keep trying.
Some days I get skunked.
Sorry no fantastic pics, just 10 fish.

Fish and fillets not a bad day at all. Haven't been in that parp of the country for years. Likely not ever again.

As they say NEVER GIVE UP those crappie will start biting sooner or later
And hope you catch a boat load of fish when they do 🎣🎣🎣🐟🐟🐠🐠🐋🐋🇺🇸🇺🇸🦅🦅
Ten fish is better than nothing. Remember a bad day on the lake is still better than a good day at work. Keep fishing.
