I decided to go to Ed Shirley's and get some small fathead minnows to fish the Glen. I'm glad that I did. My son and I got there around 7:30 and left before 9:00. We caught over 25 white crappies. 2 of them were 12 inches long. No bass or walleye.
Hey toothdoc, one evening I was out there and I saw a dad and his two kids pull out a ton of crappie & a few LMB fishing minnows on a bobber literally 1 foot off the rocks on the south pool. They must be hanging out right there in the shade under the overhang of those rocks. Nice job!
I didn't really pay any attention when I was in Shirley's on Sunday afternoon. There were just 2 guys working there. One that has been there quite awhile and a guy that I haven't seen there before.
