Going to Dale for 3 days mid April. Sm and Crappie will be my target fish.
I will figure the SM out the best I can. Can someone give me some advice
about the Crappie fishing on the Lake. Thanks

Red Shad,
I haven't really fished for them, but have caught a few on a grub while fishing for smallmouth and I can tell you there are some monster crappie in Dale. I caught one over 2 lbs and I've seen them on smalljaw.com over 3lbs.
Guys at Dale that I have talked to and who should know say to fish crappie tubes, grubs, or minnows around laydowns in the rivers and creeks for white crappie and around mid-lake weeds for black crappie. There are a lot of weeds mid lake across from Lillydale.
Now with that said, expect most of the crappie you catch to just be niced sized in the 12 in range.
