[@LifeofMurphysOutdoorsChannel]

Ohhhh those were some big ol crappie! Great video! Keep em' coming!

[@RaisedOutdoors]

We have another one next Tuesday that has a different camera angle. Let us know what you think. Thanks for the nice comment

[@BushwhackerMountainCoTV]

Gotta love Crappie!! Nice catches!

[@RaisedOutdoors]

Thanks! I love some crappie

[@BushwhackerMountainCoTV]

@@RaisedOutdoors they are fun to catch!

[@Dark30Outdoors]

Some really nice slab crappies! I've never caught a 16"r, so that's awesome!! 👍👍

[@RaisedOutdoors]

Thanks! We’ve caught 18” in shallow water reservoir east of us

[@floridaflash]

Beautiful spot to fish and the crappie were biting. Hoping to make a few crappie videos my self next week in Northern Indiana. Great job!

[@RaisedOutdoors]

It’s definitely a beautiful lake! It can be a tough lake to fish but luckily it’s our local lake and we can be patient finding them. Thanks for watching and good luck on the crappie!

[@Paulcatchesemall]

Looks like you guys got on some good crappie my friend. Beautiful colors. Keep representing for us Arkansas Guys! 🎣😎

[@RaisedOutdoors]

I finally got some Degray crappie to bite lol. Thanks for the support

[@AnArkansasTrapper]

Those are some dandy's. Good Job!

[@RaisedOutdoors]

Thanks I appreciate you watching!

[@MultiHunter247]

Looks like good solid action !!!

[@RaisedOutdoors]

It was good! Appreciate you

[@DpuckFishingandOutdoors]

Boy the crappies down in Arkansas are huge.

[@RaisedOutdoors]

If you catch it just right, you can catch a limit of giants. I need a new scale because ours broke. We’ve caught 7 or 8 that were 16” on that lake but I don’t have the weights on them.

[@BoykoOutdoors]

keep up the good content 👍

[@RaisedOutdoors]

I’m trying to make it better. Thanks for the support

[@edooutdoors316]

Raking them out the water, nice!

[@RaisedOutdoors]

We got in them good a couple evenings out before that rain and front moved in.

[@Sappwildoutdoors]

Nice Crappie man!

[@RaisedOutdoors]

Thanks! I’m working on my videography. I’m busy fishing and forget that I’m supposed to video too

[@ALs-Outdoors]

My favorite to eat... nice!

[@RaisedOutdoors]

Thanks! They are delicious

[@WhiteShouldersFarmstead]

Holy cow those the biggest crappie I've seen in a long time, makes me want to go fishing if it ever warms up here in NW Missouri.

[@RaisedOutdoors]

And if I could video half way decent it be better lol

[@WhiteShouldersFarmstead]

@@RaisedOutdoors I thought it was great, almost from your eyes. Try videoing goat kids playing, they never do it if I have the camera 😆

[@someoldmanoutdoors9136]

I have never tried trolling for them, but I will :)

[@RaisedOutdoors]

It’s a good relaxing way to catch open water, scatter crappie or to locate them to cast or jig

[@ADVSM]

Nice crappie. I'm hoping as this spawn moves in my fiancé and I will get into a few good ones. We Subscribed. We need all the knowledge we can get on these evasive Arkansas crappie lol. We are in kayaks so we cant get to all the places but try.

[@RaisedOutdoors]

In a kayak I’d fish shallow lakes. Conway, Millwood (alligators so be mindful), horseshoe….fish the trees and brush. Choose jigs according to water clarity. Clear to slightly stained I’d use more natural colors or something in the blue or green pallet. Muddy or heavy stained I’d use dark or bright colors like black and chartreuse, purple, orange etc. Pink is a good all around color choice

[@RaisedOutdoors]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/q6LLkqKZepuEpKM Check out this video. They are fishing Conway and this is the best technique for shallow water lakes with trees. You can be pretty quiet in a kayak so you shouldn’t have to have a super long pole, just what you have. Just jig for them, no casting needed

[@TheWaterSwatters]

Man yall are eating good next door!

[@RaisedOutdoors]

Water came up and got muddy so now I have to locate them again

[@koutdoors3514]

Dang good day!!!

[@RaisedOutdoors]

It was! Wife’s first trip out with me this year so we didn’t video a lot, just turned on camera when we got one on if I remembered

[@SteveFromWyoming]

Boy you put the hurt on those crappie. Fish fry tonight!

[@RaisedOutdoors]

We been getting on a few. If they weather would cooperate it’d be nice

[@mariotrobradovic9318]

I never fished Lake Degray, but would like to try. It’s such a big lake. Do you have any suggestions? I checked it out on google earth. Is that brushy creek area any good?

[@RaisedOutdoors]

Yea it’s a challenging lake. Brushy is a great area as well as Shouse Ford or areas towards the river. My advice is fish grass and structure. Because it’s deep in a lot of areas, finding shad schools is always a good way to find feeding fish. Be patient out there and you can find a pattern.

[@mariotrobradovic9318]

I appreciate that. I am going to give it a try. Thank you!!!

[@RaisedOutdoors]

Good luck

[@judithdandavis2206]

just need the hush puppies, onion, coleslaw and fries. good looking mess of fish.

[@RaisedOutdoors]

Oh we have been eating fish with the fixings for sure. We fry some okra too

[@deweyrichardson3596]

What lake. Time of year?

[@RaisedOutdoors]

@@deweyrichardson3596 Degray, March

[@SteveBigPop]

What lake?

[@RaisedOutdoors]

Degray

[@SteveBigPop]

Thanks! I’ve only fished degray once. I usually fish lake greeson

[@RaisedOutdoors]

@@SteveBigPop I don’t live far from Greeson and in the 40 or so years I’ve lived in the area I’ve never fished Greeson. We’ve taken a couple boat rides with family and hunted around it but have never wet a line. Probably get on it this year….maybe lol
