Despite it is gonna be colder but crappie already on the move from deep to their spawning site. Past weekend a guy told me he caught probably 30-40 crappie on the spot that I usually found them when first start moving. The next night I visited my usual spot and after figuring it out the depth and where finally got some of them. Not the number nor quality yet, most are about 12” with a couple of 14” hanging out tight to the cover.
My prediction is within a week or so they will be more slab and wild spread feeding. Get yourself ready ppl.
Crappies are on the move.

Re: Crappies are on the move.
When do crappie typically spawn around these parts? Do they have the same timing as bass?Just_Bass wrote: ↑Sun Jan 19, 2025 9:47 pm Despite it is gonna be colder but crappie already on the move from deep to their spawning site.

Re: Crappies are on the move.
I don’t know about other but my area which is colder at night, I expect to see full force, huge slab around mid February. They will spread out in wide area and pretty aggressive.

Re: Crappies are on the move.
It was better for the last two nights, caught probably 30 each night. They are not wide spread yet but crappie nibble plus a right color lure can get them to bite easier. They are still full of eggs so I am not sure if they already spawning or just gathering around. All released for success spawning season.
