Has anyone caught any crappies on Bald Eagle? Can you give any tips?

It has been biting pretty good for about 2 weeks now. Try small red head hook and a small mister twister (grub) near the shoreline.

I just bought a boat, pick it up on Friday...I live a couple miles away in Roseville, I can't wait to slay some crappies!

I haven't fished metro lakes much, does BE get pretty crowded?

BE can get pretty crowded. Especially weekends during the summer

Yep, gets really crowded on the weekends and most nights during the week as well.

That's what I like about having inlaws that live on BE. I always have a boat available to just jump in and fish out of whenever I want.

Dropped the boat in, she floats!! Water temp around BE was in the mid 50s.

hopefully be out chasing them tomorrow. had to work a half day today, and on my way home it started raining, so i went to gander and picked up a new UL combo, some jigs, beetle spins, and some flu flus and plastics.

dying to cast the new rod somewhere other than the front yard.

my suggestion would be to try either the reeds sticking up in the middle of the lake by the launch or the creek that dumps in at the southeastern corner for crappies. There's some schools of 100-150 crappies in the creek. Those schools are of smaller crappies (1/4-1/3 pound), but they're still schooled up.
