had the best day crappie fishing yesterday of my life, ended up with 27 slab crappie. i may be hooked on that lake for awhile

.
i was using waxies with glow shrimpo jigs, also caught a lot of them on white tube jigs.. i think it was one of those days that u could have put anything down there and caught a fish.

Three of us out there today, dawn till 1. Set up in 25' I lost a slab at the hole right away, thought "Here we go!" ...very slow ...marked some fish with very few takers. Some slush appearing.

Hey searcher, i think its time to go get the jet ski ready so we can get back to the honey hole on greenwood, its lookn' a lil slushy, best time to be out there, it wouldnt be greenwood if it wasnt a challenge

2 1/2 hrs, 200 yards out from culvert. wigglers, minnows, spikes and waxies. One stinkin small perch. Still nice day to be out though. Oh ya, 5 inches of slush in some spots.

Yeah Crunkster..... Heres some advice, call me when you guys get Ice and I'll come up and show you how to catch em. Checked 49855 10-Day Forcast, you'll have ice soon! Pat and I may come up.

Had to check UP Ice Shanty to see if everyone was ready

tapsboy68 · « **Reply #23 on:** Dec 29, 2009, 06:07 AM »

Rippenlips · « **Reply #24 on:** Dec 29, 2009, 07:54 PM »

just fished greenwood tonight, not much action, not much ice, there about 3" maybe 4" of clear ice with 2" slush with 3" of with ice on top of that. Where the snow is a little thicker cleared off a spot and there was maybe 4 inches of water on the ice befor i punched a hole maybe 3" of ice in some spots, i was there about a week and a half ago and it dosent seem to have made ice since then, just cant seem to find the fish there right now thier putting the slip on me.

browning13 · « **Reply #25 on:** Jan 04, 2010, 06:03 PM »

Fished greenwood on sunday and things were pretty slow. Ice is setting up nicely though. Little or no snow in most places and the ice was anywhere from 8-12"

tapsboy68 · « **Reply #26 on:** Jan 12, 2010, 02:23 PM »

I was out on Greenwood last Saturday for about 4 hours. Flags with Northerns. No luck on Crappie though. Ice was 10-12" where I was fishing. I was about 400-500 yards northwest of the boat landing. Good luck. Hope to hear good things.

tapsboy68 · « **Reply #28 on:** Jan 13, 2010, 12:56 PM »

i was on my way out there but i decided to go to shewitzers basin instead. Caught one pike and a few small crappies. Marked a lot of fish but couldnt get them to hit.

Hello, I'm going to Marquette this weekend to help a buddy move into his new apartment and then we are hoping to do some fishing on Sunday. We are looking to go after some eyes but anything will do if it is biting. This seems like one of the better places to go from what I've been reading. Any suggestions on this lake or other lakes would be appreciated.
