Cowman Report post Posted April 9, 2010 With some great direction from "Standman" (many thanks Brian!), my wife and I hit up San Carlos on Wednesday in search of some Crappie. Morning started out pretty windy but it died down around lunch and the rest of the day was gorgeous. We fished the first half of the day way up the San Carlos arm and struggled. Found 65-68 degree water but couldn't get on any good concentrations of fish. Using minnows and jigs we had 5 fish, males and females, by 2 PM and I decided it was time to go find some different fish. So back past the floatilla we went and ended up getting into some shallow fish closer to Mohave point. Back in the bigger coves black males were up tight to the bank and females were off 6-8 feet. Ended with 23 for the day, 7 females. All but 4 were on minnows. Thanks again to this forum, particularly Mr. Standman, for getting us started in the right direction, it's been many many moons since I've been to that lake. Cheers and tight lines!

standman Report post Posted April 10, 2010 Glad you had a good time and that you were able to get on some fish. I was supposed to be there today but had to put a new trolling motor on today. Will be there tomorrow with my uncle who doesn't fish hardly at all. So we will see how we do. It will be fun no matter what happens. Brian Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
