I've been doing some turkey hunting and crappies fishing lately. Crappies are are way more predictable than turkeys I finding out. My daughter and I have been in the woods for a few hours each morning trying to get a chance at a gobbler, no luck so far. The wind has really been howling, making it harder to hear distant birds. Ticks are as thick as I've ever seen too.

Crappies are in 6 to 10 feet of water near spawning sites, and readily taking minnows under small bobbers. The wind is making this a bit tricky too but when you find the fish they'll bite. And boy are they good eating!

Good luck,
