Mississippi's Premier Beginner Crappie Fishing Trip

Immanuel and Patrick went to work on them this morning. We had a lot of fun and finished the limit before it got too hot. We have a few days left to get on the books before it gets too hot. Give us a call or text 662-554-2146

Thanks Mr Richard and his crew for coming to fish with us at Lone Cypress. We had to cover a lot of water but the end result was good. Both boats filled the table and had plenty of fish for a fish fry. Give us a call or text to get on the books. 662-554-2146

Double Boat Crappie Success

We had to put the trolling motor on high and cover some water today. But we filled the table by the end of the day. Had a lot of quality fish. Give us a call or text to get on the books. 662-554-2146

Quality Crappie Across the Lake

Day two on the water with our returning group proved exactly why we love these multi-day trips. After a successful start, we decided to shift tactics entirely, moving away from the trolling rods to focus on a more active approach. The change in strategy paid off immediately as we got straight to work on a solid school of fish.

The highlight of the day included landing two impressive specimens weighing in at 2.78 lbs and 2.54 lbs. After a few quick photos, we made sure to let those larger fish swim off to fight another day, ensuring the health of our local Mississippi fishery. We rounded out the trip by hitting a full boat limit of perfect "eaters" for the cooler. The Jenko Fishing X-15 proved to be an incredible tool for the job, handling every hookset with ease. We are already counting down the days until this group returns next year.

Hot Bite on Mississippi Crappie

Had Mr Kevin and Mrs Shani out with us today. We started hammering them when we dropped the trolling motor and never stopped until we had a boat limit. We had the jenko rods working today. The bite is on fire and it will just get better. Give us a call or text to get on the books. 662-554-2146. 662-791-9359.

Hot Summer Crappie Bite in Full Swing at Sardis and Enid Lakes

Crappie fishing around Batesville, Mississippi, is heating up as summer settles in. Sardis and Enid Lakes are producing consistent numbers, with anglers reporting solid action in both the early morning and late afternoon. The fish are transitioning to deeper brush piles and submerged structures as water temps rise into the mid-80s.

Most successful anglers are trolling or spider rigging in 10–18 feet of water using small jigs tipped with minnows. Chartreuse, pink, and silver remain the hot color choices this week. Crappie are stacking up around timber and creek channels, and bites have been especially strong just before sundown.

Weekend pressure is growing, so targeting less-fished areas during weekdays can increase your odds. Whether you're fishing from a boat or the bank, Batesville’s lakes are offering up quality slabs right now—just be ready to follow the depth changes as the temperatures climb.

We started out with a bang this moring and never stopped. We had the limit by 9 and we released over 30 keepers by 12:45. Special time of the year when they start the fall feed up. Give me a call or text to get on the books and fill the cooler. 662-554-2146.
