we went out saturday to check a few cracker beds and boy were they turned on..the action was fast and furious all day...even caught several big male black crappie...in 2 ft of water...just about any where you can find gravel and wood or weed beds you could find em...crickets seemed to work best for us...and the best beds were in the back of swamp creek..on the left all the way in the back between the 2 creeks...we must have caught 300 or more...we kept several big males(40-50)..we release all females(except catfish)..now is the time fellas...for a few more weeks they should be red hot...but remember...if ya let the girls go..the big males will keep commin in....good luck...

swamp creek is in the big sandy...its the bay just below mansard resort..they are doing pretty good up in there right now...crackers are very easy to spook...stay as far away from the bed as you can and cast the lightest tackle at em on a light action rod and you should catch all you care to clean..there are some good beds just outside of swamp creek in the meadow...all along the bank there starting at sulfer well island...they are everywhere...gravel with some wood and/or grass is the key to the big redears...good luck
