| Spring Crappies |
Delaware Ohio ,Alum Creek Lake 1990
April early spring
Party cloudy & cold high 40's to mid 50's
Fishing the north east shore in a cove, off the main lake,
the bottom was gravel and mud with many trees , weeds and old cat-tails
surrounding the outer edges.
Using live minnows , night crawlers and wax worms.
With my shimano cx1000sq ultra light reel and Abu Garcia 400 ultra light rod
along with 6 pound line. I would cast my bait by the edge of the cover with a pencil bobber,
a small # 6 true turn hook it would not take long before I have a bite the bobber would stand up
I knew there was a taker ,I never use any weight when fish for panfish
just a hook, bait and bobber this is work real well.
On this day the fishing was great I caught many crappies and bluegills.
spent the whole day fishing and relaxing what a fishing trip.
I have spent many weekend fishing this lake.
With the ultra light equipment pan fishing is a lot of fun.
