>what area do you live in??
I live in whitesville, just on the other side of ohio county. I have fished rough quite a bit for bass, but never for crappie.

Well, I came back with 15, one almost made to 2lb mark. I missed probably 50 strikes, and caught 20 that didn't make the limit. I can't wait to go back.

got the stratos hooked up going down tomorrow are they deep or did the jig n bob work?

[Rudypoo4444]

Jig and bobber in 3ft of water was what I caught all mine off of. Red a,d white tube jig seemed to work the best.

I have never fished the rough river or rough river lake. Are you catching crappie on the river?? if so what are the launch area like and their location? Just trying to find something a little closer to home for some fishing spots.

I am fishing the lake, but right now, it is reduced to a creek. There is a little bit of current, so it is keeping the fish moving a little. We are catching fish every time we go, and usually coming out with at least 15 over the 9 inch limit, but most of the time more. It is a blast.

I have heard that too, but I have never tried it. I am going to make a trip up there to check it out. Let me know how you do.

well honestly i've been told from my dad that grew up down there an has fished it. when i was younger i watched my uncles pull them out but i think that was in the spring however its a popular hole. see theres a lot of stumps down there an you can walk to it. well tell me if u wanna email. I'm goin to salt this weekend. fishin my new made jig. its a killer for bass but i caught a few crappie already. i can tell you how to make it just email me its simple an trust me i'm on to something i think that could add more fish this time of year or it was a fluke.
