    IL 03/28/15

    Was the only boat on the lake most of the day.....water temp 45 degrees. Sunny about 30 degrees with light winds. Crushing the crappies on the 1/64 is understatement. Orange head white kiptail was by far the winner for the day. Spider rigging found them today in 10ft to 12ft of water...
