barren river lake crappie

[bdille]

How is the crappie fishing on barren? My son and I are going Saturday. Was wondering if anybody know how the bite is and if anybody has some tips on where to catch them. This will be my first time crappie fishing there. Thanks for the info.

I would expect that the heavy rain we received this morning will stain parts of the lake a little bit. You should be able to go up into the major creek arms and find some fish around wood cover. I think the big push of bigger females has happened and they have spawned out, so you may have to grind it out to catch a big mess of keepers. There should be lots of males to be caught fairly shallow right now. Hope this is somewhat helpful. Good luck!
