Info for sprig trip to KY (CRAPPIE)

[OneShy]

I was down there this past weekend, and there is plenty of trees now laying into the water from the ice storm. I fished the north end of the lake, so I can't say for sure about the area you will be in.

I would try and go in mid to late March - you have a much larger population of black crappie, and they spawn a whole lot sooner...plus you might get a cheaper room in March.

Here are some fishing reports:

Check the reports and they should give you some direction.

Here's the conditions page as well:

Looking at those water temps, the black crappie shouldn't be too far off from doing their thing...

I would go late March / early April, but no way would I go any later than mid April if crappie is what you are after. I find them much easier to catch this time of year.
