Eufaula is a dirty (red dirt) lake. Which allows the crappie to live shallow year-round. Eufaula Lake has crappie from one end of the lake to the other. Although it’s not a “crappie of a lifetime lake”, it’s most definitely a “fill your freezer lake.” The massive population of crappie is amazing at this Oklahoma gem! I was catching my crappie in small ditches directly off massive flats. The ditch would drop only a couple of feet, but the crappie was using the ditch as a highway. I was using an 11’ crappie pole and placing my 1/8 hair jig right on their nose utilizing my Garmin Live scope. The ditch was 15’-18’ deep and the crappie were 10’-12’ down in open water and on the stumps. You don’t think about crappie living this shallow during the winter months, but the dirty water allows them to do this.

Super Day to catch some nice Bass early in the morning. The Bass sure were hungry and they were hitting that Spinner like crazy.

The bite is very tough right now due to recent rains and cold fronts. The Jerk bait is by far the best bait to throw as of a few days ago but I’m sure there are other things you can get bit on. We caught a few on jigs and chatterbaits also so maybe mix those in. Look for fish on FFS if you have it because that usually helps. Fish are scattered for the most part but are moving up so do not be afraid to try up shallow or deeper.

Fish are continuing to move up shallow and a crankbait is great for getting a reaction strike when they are very aggressive

The Shimano line is the only outstanding part of the two days. No tangles. No twist and no backlash on the battcaster. First time I've used it. Put on reels as 12 foot leaders and full casting length line on 2 of 6 reels. Very pleases with it. The wind sure can blow in Oklahoma. Old Town Kayak performed nicely.
