I'm thinking about heading up there tomorrow to try the mid-week bite out. I will let you guys know how it is Thursday.

I had a call from Ron, the guy who sells the minnows yesterday. He got 19 nice crappie by red point. Fish were holding in 2-4 foot of water. Water clarity is about 1.5'. I may take a trip out there myself.

Ok. I left my house in Mesa at 0530, got on the water at 0730. Took the six minute ride to Red Point. There were 13 boats between 0800 and 1200. Water temp was 47 degrees when I started. Most people were trolling bobbers with minnow, I trolled a 1/16 JDG tipped with a minnow. The morning bite is very slow, I pulled one out and didn't see too many more people catching much. Most of the boats left around noon when the infamous mid day winds started blowing down the lake. About 2 PM the water temp hit 51 and that seemed the number the fish were looking for. I caught 5 within a 45 minute stretch and then it was off again so I headed home. All my fish were caught in 15 1/2 to 16 feet of water, making passes down the west side of Red Point through the submerged brush about 30 feet off the shoreline. There were plenty of boats out about 100 - 200 yards off shore trolling but like I said, I didn't see much catching. Some other boats probably did as well as I did, definitely no one pulling in 20-25. I would say once that water hits 55-59 degrees, that lake will explode! The weekend of Feb. 12th is looking good. Good luck, I hope this helped.
