Find the brunch piles or rock piles off shore and you'll find the fish. Vary between 3/8 and 1/2 jigs depending on your depth. Remember to fish it methodically.

I caught fish throwing an a-rig on points. I also caught fish on offshore humps.

Tossed a glide bait I’ve been building. Many follows on FFS forward facing sonar around docks and cane piles. Would draw attention with glide bait then follow up with jerkbait. Water is about 10’ lower than normal for dam maintenance. Now is the time to explore the lake for visible structure that would typically be underwater.

10-15 foot brush piles that are near or in the creek channel are loaded with last years hatch good eater sizes. Find the bigger crappie out roaming around Near the piles. Some wolf packs of 4-5 nice slabs are your best bet!

Caught several small fish off stumps and rip rap. My two best fish came out deeper at around boulders in 12 to 16 feet of water. Had to locate the schools of bait to be productive. Winners brought in a limit of 21 pounds with several other bags weighed in of 16 pounds or better.
