Crappie biting ?

[bassmanic1]

Hey guys - heard that crappie were biting at Snakey Point last week so I headed up there today . Fished for 3 hours without a bite . 2 boats on the water when I arrived and 3 more when I left , I didnt see anyone doing any good . Started on shallow wood then moved to pads near deeper water , which at Snakey Point is 4-5 foot , no luck . Packed up and stopped at New Lake since I was in the area . With the bluebird skies I fished close to the bottom but no crappie , just 5 small bass . I didnt have any worms just minnows so I didnt bluegill fish . The north wind was cold and very brisk . The lake is very clear considering all the rain lately . The swimming area looks very nice and the campground had a few RV's in it . Its nice to have good fishing close with the price of fuel making trips $$$$ .

One of the guys that I ran into as they were leaving and I was arriving said he either fished Snakey Point yesterday or will be fishing it tomorrow.

Now that I know how to get up there I may fish it a time ot two this year. Not really sure that road will work as a launch ramp for my boat. My boat does not slide of the 2 x 4 easily. I was thinking about adding some of the BPS plastic strips to the 2 x 4 's. The plastic is slick and helps the boat slide on and off the trailer's 2x4's. I have my 2x4 on edge.
