Casting into 5-8 ft deep with bobbers set with lures about 18" down, the crappies liked an extremely slow retrieve with an occasional stop and that's generally when they'd strike. Also, we used 8+ ft poles to really cast out and not spook them.

It was a great Fishing Opener on Big Marine Lake today. I got 22 bass with the biggest being a 15 1/2, a 15 and three 14s. I found the fish among the bluegills in 4 to 8 feet of water. Every bass was caught on a 5 inch Green Pumpkin wacky rigged original Senko.

Another good day on Big Marine. I caught 19 bass and my buddy got 19 also. We found them in 3 to 6 FOW using green pumpkin Senkos. The biggest was 19 inches. All of the big fish were post spawn.

Was fishing for bass, ended up hooking in to a couple pike with the dark sleeper. Just cast, let it hit bottom, and slow retrieve.

Outing is for May 26th, water temps in the mid to upper 60s. Weather was mostly clear, medium winds. First time on this lake so did some exploring and sampling lots of spots. Best luck came on shallow flats and spawning bays. Fish seemed to like my Sprinker Frog the most. I don't think they were spawning yet, didn't see any locked on nests. Good first day on a lake. Quite a few small to medium fish, but no bigguns. Loved my new Victory rod and Daiwa 150 Coastal Reel as well.
