Thanks Guys.... I think its still to early to hit the crappie, but maybe I'll give it a shot.
From what I've heard, up to now .... Crappie at GRL are on fire, but running on the small size ... for the most part. I don't know if this means the big ones have already come and gone (though I doubt it) ... or if the lake is just full of sublegal sized fish. I never fished the Holmes Bend area, all that much ... and when I did fish GRL, I fished between the dam & Robinson Creek area. When I got into Crappie spawning in that area, it was usually mid April or thereabouts.
This rain & cold spell may run them back out deeper, but if they're trying to nest ... they won't go far. Post a report, if you go ... always interested in hearing about what the Crappie are doing around the state.
