Where the fish are today
88% Good chance for crappie today · 6–30 ft deep
- Water 67°F on top, a bit cool for them, so they feed in the warmest water they can find.
- Best water today is 6–30 ft deep, mostly on channel edges.
- The lake is layered: warm water down to about 70 ft, cold below.
- Little oxygen below about 105 ft, so fish stay above it.
