Lake Hartwell Crappie report

Fish and Chips!  Boy is it hard to beat fried Crappie!  I spent the day yesterday insearch of new brush piles!  I'd have to say it was successfull!  Now
finding a new crappie hole is a lot of searching, finding and trying.  It takes
a lot of time.  With the water around 7ft from full pool, it is a great time to
ride around areas you like to crappie fish and mark brush piles that are in the
shallows.  Bass fisherman and Crappie fisherman, thanks for your hard work in
putting them in the lake.  Boy do some of them make good fishing spots.  I think
I marked at least 10-15 new Brush piles yesterday that were in 8-10 ft of water on the old Hummingbird.
  Now right now that is a little shallow in water depth to catch a big mess of
Crappie, but if the water goes up quick or closer to spawn those brush piles
will be worth there weight in Crappie. 

As for the water Temp I had 48 degrees in the morning and in places by mid
afternoon had 52 in some areas in the back of the creeks.  I had to look hard
for deeper brush, the best being Brush that I found in 15 ft of water.  I was
catching some crappie only 5 ft down.  Minnows and jigs worked good.  Seemed that
the jig actually caught a few of the bigger fish of the day. Matter of fact I
think it could have got ugly on at least one of the brush piles.  Over all, I
still think if you has a good brush pile in 15-25 ft it should have Crappie on
it this time of year and they should bite good all day for you. GOOD LUCK
