Crappie report, lake of the ozarks

Follow your graph - 3 places to fish and there are more that are very productive but start here. Study your graph for concentrations of schools od Shad, you may find a few big schools and you may find a lot of small schools I. The same area. Fish them there will also be crappie there. Secondly, find submerged trees or brush in 15 ft or more of water. Preferred 20 to 30 ft. look for fish on the cover, and fish those with fish on them. Third, find concentration of docks that you can get tight to and shoot them or fish in the open slips. You can jig fish or split shot and a Aberdeen hook with a minnow.

I agree. Pflueger President and whatever size is best. 30, 35, or 40

Help with a nice spinning reel and rod setup. Budget 100-200

My suggestion would be a 6.5 to 7 foot Fenwick Eagle in moderate action ($60) and the bullet proof Pfluger President size 30 ($60). That combination should cover both of your needs for the time being but once the addiction reaches fever pitch you’ll probably want to get species/ lure specific rods and reels.

I totally concur! "My suggestion would be a 6.5 to 7 foot Fenwick Eagle in moderate action ($60) and the bullet proof Pfluger President size 30 ($60).

I need serious help

Fish for blue cats with cut bait, all the prepared baits and mixes are more for channel cats. Pay attention to annual migration of blue cats and fish deep and fish points and fish the forage they are eating. Like now it could be the blue gill fry have grown enough or the shat may be deep cause of the cold fronts. And blue cats are great to eat and so are Crappie. I’d be happy to show you the ropes on Lake if the Ozarks. Glad to help with anything I can.
