Great lake to take the kids fishing.

Tried with powerbait and spinners for a bit without success.  Finally decided to go dig up some worms and found 2.  Those 2 worms caught about 20 crappies, 1 cutthroat, and 1 rainbow in the hour we fished.  All the fish were small.

Can you catch crappies from the small wharf or is a boat needed

[Funeral Of Hearts]

you can catch crappie almost anywhere on that lake. They aren't hard to catch and are all around the wharf

[cutthroat22]

Yes what FOH said.  Also close to the lilly-pads seemed best.

When you say the crappies were small , how small were they ?

What is the basic set-up for catching crappies

What is the basic set-up for catching crappies

It can be as simple as a small float, weight, hook and worm.

I would suggest "keeping" your (20 I believe) limit each time.

Get the numbers down, and get the sizes up. 

They are a fun fish to catch when they get to size, and are fine eating.
