CrappieTechniqueVertical Jigging Mid Depth (10-19')SeasonFallStructureSubmerged VegetationSpotting fish balls on sidescan and downscan. I found some sort of strange structure at 15’. Been pulling decent crappies out. It’s near the first point by the awesome house. I’d be happy to share location if I can figure out how. I took my kids with tonight. The pic shows a “sunfish” not a crappie, but it was in the same spot.

Found decent size largemouth bass in from of submerged vegetation and weed lines using a drop shot lure. I'd cast, let it drop for a few seconds and then work it in. I did try a topwater Whopper Plopper but nothing bit. Worms deeper in from of weeks was the best bet.
