Fishing 2024

[canebreaker]

Yesterday my son and I went to Sardis spillway and caught our 15 limits of crappie. Smallest kept was 10", largest was 14".

Anyone fishing at Eagle Creek from the bank? Are the crappie spawning/biting?

There are no fish in Eagle Creek when fishing from the shore. There are plenty of fish in Eagle Creek when paddling a kayak without a fishing pole. It's the damnedest thing.

Some of the ones I cleaned last Saturday had eggs.

Mine have been spawning about a week or so now, but I'm sure my water is a bit warmer than Eagle Creek.

Trying to convince my wife to go fishing Sunday. Channels are full of crappies ready to drop eggs.

Only thing maybe better than catching crappie is eating crappie.

Anyone know where the water temp's are currently at in IN reservoirs, rivers & lakes?
Catfishing the last couple weeks has been rather slow compared to what I normally see. I mean they haven't been biting much on any of the normal baits we throw.
Just kind of seems like we've seen warmer weather earlier than many years and makes me wonder if they maybe starting to spawn earlier than normal

They have been very active, at least in smaller bodies of water. In my acre, very active the last two weeks. My son caught two in one day, without much effort.

In a friends 1/3ac, two were jumping up in the middle of it today, but neither were biting.

I've been fishing at Morse and Monroe and both have been tough to get anything to bite but dinks

Haven't seen my cats today, but bluegill are out and about. Didn't get a pic of the few bass fingerlings I saw, but here's this massive sunfish my 6yr old knew was too big to get to get off his hook by himself.
