Fall is here and the fish have just moved to there fall pattern. Everything was the same for a long time but big changes have just occurred today! If you like crappie fishing now is the time. The crappie have moved to the tops of shallower brush piles at 18-24 feet and the walleye are on main lake points at 27-32 feet brush near the bottom. When I went diving this morning crappie were everywhere. I checked out two other different places that are known to hold fall crappie and they were there too. I got my limit but they were not as healthy and thick as winter crappie but skinny. This could be because there are not nearly as many shad in the lake as there was last fall due to the kills caused by the cold winter. Big Redear Blue gill, over a pound, are numerous too as are brim. The brush piles are loaded but not the deep ones. They are holding bass. Surface temperature is 76 degrees and the visibility is 8-12 feet depending on the amount of sunshine. Just right for spearfishing. It is to be sunny and near 80 for the next several days, perfect for diving unlike the last several which were cloudy and cool. You do not have to go far from Blackburn's dock.
