Hi Art! Long time no see! It is Richie Scheuermann. I told my dad Hi for you. We really are in debt to you. You guided us fishing about 20 years ago and have been addicted ever since. You taught us how to bass fish in Arizona and how to crappie fish. We will forever be thankful. We went out to Roosevelt last Saturday 3/14/15. We fished the grapevine salt area from 6:30-2. We caught 3 huge female crappie. We were fishing in 18 feet of water with little white jig heads with white grub and tipped with a minnow. We were fishing about 8-10 feet deep. My dad went out on Wednesday of this week hopping he could get them from the shore. No luck. He talked to a boat that was fishing the same way we did but they were using purple grubs and slip bobbers and fishing a little shallower at like 3-6 feet. We are going to go back out Saturday. We are trying to time the spawn for once. Last couple years we have been clueless. Last great shallow crappie spawn trip was at San Carlos before it dried up
Hope this helps someone catch some good eaters. Maybe I will see you out there Saturday.
