    East-Central Indiana

    Went out fishing today. I guess the Crappie havent turned on here yet, maybe another week or two - we are always a little behind you guys in southern Indiana.

    Anyway, went out today...used a crank bait...hooked like 30 SHAD. They just kept getting in front of my crank and would get snagged. A few bass were around, but never got a bite from them...should have seen how many small shad were around though. Even snagged a couple that were like 12-14 inches. - Better than nothing I guess....lol

    Hope the crappie get active soon.

    Oh yeah, went to prairie creek reservoir - Muncie.

    Did you expected anything better from that carp pit? that place used to be good but it's hopeless.

    I catch a lot of crappie and bluegill out of there. Also got some good sized catfish. Haven't had much luck with the bass though - just a few.

    Also, I guess its suppose to be really good for walleye.

    The eyes fishing is good because management continually stocking them and they have an endless supply of shad to eat. Ever since the carp took over the shallow, the bass recruitment is very very low. On top of that, I have no doubt that the adult eyes gobbled up the baby bass too. If they stock the lake with large bass fingerling it could turn out really well in a few years.
