With the Crappie run winding down I met Traci, Jason and their two kids Andrea and Erik at the boat landing around 4:30 in the afternoon for an evening of fishing. Jason told me he hasn't caught a fish since 1999. We headed out across the lake, to a couple of small bays where I knew the fish were holding tight to the timber. Andrea and Erik each started catching fish right off the bat. After a while we moved to another spot and Jason caught his first fish in nine years. Several others were boated as well. With the sun starting to go down over the hills, and the shadows getting longer on the water, we went to one last spot, a log that lays about three feet down in about eight feet of water. Andrea pulled several of them out of there. Everybody enjoyed themselves and they got enough for a couple of meals.
