Where and how to fish
In spring, look around flooded trees and laydowns in creeks and the upper lake. Later, search main-lake ridges, humps and drops with brush. Small jigs and minnows are sensible crappie choices. The old creek channels and installed habitat give you places to investigate when the shallow bite fades.
