Heppner Gazette-Times, Heppner, Oregon Wednesday, July 11, 1990 - FIVE EASTERN OREGON OUTDOORS _ h> Mark Bugetl I don’t know a single angler from age five to 95 who doesn’t enjoy catching crappies. And most of the salmon, trout and steelhead fishermen I’ve talked to- -regardless how ardent they may be in their piscatorial pursuit-have admitted that they actually prefer to eat the white-meated crappie over their favorite salmo id species. That the crappie is so well suited to the table is but one reason it has gain ed such popularity among eastern Oregon’s summertime anglers. Where they are found, they are usually found by the thousands. This is especially attractive when fishing with kids, whose enthusiasm span can be measured in milliseconds when the action is slow, or even for older anglers ^ith a like amount of patience. Locate a school of active crappies and you can fill a five-gallon bucket (or two) in no time. Though it's tough for some to understand, crappies usually need this kind of fishing pressure. They tend to over-reproduce to make up for high mortality and, if left unchecked, can quickly overpopulate and become stunted. Drastic environmental changes can endanger crappie populations, but sport angling rarely does—especially in larger waters. Take, for in stance, the Snake River’s Brownlee Reservoir, a favorite crappie hotspot of anglers from all over the Northwest. A joint study between both Oregon’s and Idaho’s fish and wildlife departments estimated that anglers took nearly three million crappies from Brownlee last year, yet each time I visited the reservoir this spring, my fish finder could not read the bottom in most areas due to an overwhelming number of suspended crappies. In the spring, spawning crappies can be ridiculously easy to find and catch from shallow water near rock, grass or wood structure, but as the summer sun warms the surface, post-spawn crappies usually retreat to deeper water. Though this often proves frustrating for anglers used to fishing the shallow stuff, they needn’t be discouraged; the fish usually aren't difficult to locate and, once found, are more than willing to bite. If you know where a lot of spawning activity took place, simply head straight from there to deeper water. Boaters with depth finders should look for sharp breaks in the lake bottom’s topography or, better yet, a nearby submerged creek or river channel. Crappies will often hang suspended just off the break into deeper water. A favorite trick of mine, once I’ve located a school of crappie, is to position the boat directly over them and lower my jig directly under the depth finder’s transducer. Then, when I turn up the sensitivity on my Eagle LCG (a Z-9000), I can watch the screen and easily follow the tiniest jig right down to the fish. This pinpoint place ment allows me to quickly determine which colors or types of jigs the fish prefer at the moment. Boaters without sonar units can also find crappies, though with somewhat more traditional methods. Rare is the occasion when not a breath of air stirs over most of eastern Oregon’s lakes—usually there is more wind than we’d like. Simply winddrift heavily weighted jigs over suspected crappie locations until you catch a fish, then anchor and ply the area with lighter lures. Bank fishermen also use this fish-locating technique with the aid of a slip bobber. If there are several anglers in your boat, each should use a different color at a variety of depths until the crappies are found. As for color, a good starting point is to match skirt color to water con ditions. Green or chartreuse seems to work well during a big algae bloom (such as at Unity Reservoir), while smoke or salt and pepper will take fish from clear water. In brownish, dirty-water conditions, try very bright or very dark hues. At any rate, don’t be afraid to experiment-crappies often will readily hit one color while ignoring all others. So it you buddy is knocking them dead, don’t hesitate to switch. Crappie Provide Summer Action For All Ages W.C.C.C. Golf July 3, 1990 W.C.C.C.
