Thanks for the reports. I live out here in the Long lake area and have never "winter" fished for crappie. What is the typical structure/depth in winter for them? Do you ever target perch in winter? I have a boat with top and heater....warm, no hypothermia!! You guys are indeed tough.

Was you guys going past the Felton area around noon (leaving)? I was in the blue Ranger waving back at you. The bass weren't cooperating. I had 3 hooked and all 3 came off. Not positive they were bass. I was out for 4 quick hours just to get out. Probably hit it again, weather permitting. Oh, nice catch by the way. Remember, the later you fish, the quicker Spring will get here !!! Nice report !!!!!

Downriggeral: We are actually fishing in the same locations we fish in early spring. The crappies and perch will be holding in these same areas before and after the drawdown. We have been working the same 75' stretch for the last month and based on the number of fish we are marking we haven't even put a dent in them.
