2023 crappie thread!!!

[BrandonH]

I would start around the middle of the lake and fish the shallow water in the creeks. Don’t forget the boat houses and docks. Good luck !

Thanks

I'm not opposed to Lake Conroe...any tips on where to start?

Lake Palestine would be a Great Lake.

Lake Palestine is no Lake Conroe but you might do well there. ��

I approve this message!!!

You need to know lake Palestine to run it. It is NOT an open lake…be careful! Luckily there are lots of launch options for those who don’t know the lake so you have the option to launch close to where you are going to fish.

That's my plan for now. Decide what area I want to fish & find a nearby launch. I'm coming in from the East in Whitehouse, so looking on Google now.

Lake Palestine Marina or The Villages look easy to access.

I know nothing about Palestine but the fish should be shallow. Pick a major creek and good luck

@brandonh , if you aren't set on bass and crappie, yall might catch a mess of sandies in the neches where it goes under highway 31 just west of tyler. Not sure what the run is doing there currently but this is typically a good week for them. Excellent parking and walk in access there. A good boat ramp as well. We prefer to fish kickapoo, about another 5 miles or so west, but it is a more improvised ramp situation and there is basically no bank fishing opportunity. If you put in the neches at 31, you can also get into palestine easily. I'd say it is less than a mile down stream.

I made every effort this morning to talk Tom out of this trip. The wind was gusting 25 miles an hour, drizzling rain and just miserable out. He was dead set to take his grandson fishing so I told him I knew of one place that we might be able to get the boy out of the wind and still catch a few fish. We found a pocket back in the buck brush and we’re able to catch fish using jigs under a slip cork in 2 to 3 foot of water. The rain quit mid morning but the wind never let up. They ended the morning with a one man limit and a bonus bass that really tickled the kid.

I love the bass on the cleaning table! Good job buddy!!!

Newest ACT video has us on D'arbonne fishing out the big sled! The fat girl made the show!

I need some crappie filets!! The spawn is starting right now.

[The Skunk Ape]

I’m gonna take my wife and boys out on Conroe tomorrow. Does anybody know if the crappie are up shallow spawning? Or is deep water the ticket? I’m not to familiar with Conroe thanks
