well i went out today in search of crappie with my newly installed humminbird 798 side imaging sonar emoParty <br />launched out of hbsp around 8am to very dense fog and thanks to the gps i very slowly made my way to wolftiever.<br />made a few passes with the SI only yo see lots of stuff but not very many fish . on up around polo&#39;s it was very muddy <br />with LOTS of debris in the water. found a few docks with what was obviously fish but not a bite. <br /><br />with the fog lifted i made it out to some main lake spots where i snapped this pick of what i think was a school of crappie . <br />as large a school as it looks i only got 3 short (fat but short ) fish from it . <br /><br />cruised up to the nuke area just to see what it looked like on the SI and ran into ericM who was also having a slow day. <br /><br />tried to bass fish a couple of coves while looking around with the SI but its hard to fish AND look at that thing at the same time emoDoh <br /> i did pick up one more decent crappie and a barely keeper LM on a craw jig before it was time for me to go at 3pm . <br /><br />made a pass at the boat slips next to the gas pumps at hbsp just to see what that looked like. <br /><br />water temp was from 53 to nearly 60 in the back of one cove and the crappie came on BG bleeding shad on a 10 count
