Thanks Carl......Mike.......Jim and John. 95% of the time John tidal crappie in my region are attached to shallow wood, whether that be man made docks/bulkheads or thousands of downed trees. For example, I have dozens of trees marked on the river I fished last night and only got to the third one last night when I reached my 20 crappie limit and began to cull a little bit before sunset.......Since peak spawning is a relatively short period, this strategy works out well and traditionally will produce fish. Some of these trees were discovered during low water conditions and may sit normally with up to two feet of water on them.........flooded cypress is the key to quality crappie and big numbers on the Albemarle........
