Roesiger Crappie Question?
I was planning on trying Lake Roesiger for Crappie this summer. This is one of the few Snohomish county lakes that I haven't fished yet, and I was looking for some advice on areas to try, what months are best at this lake, and what lures/bait to use. Will the normal crappie gear work or is there a particular jig or color that works best? I know there are three different sections to this lake, is one better than the others? I have a boat so getting around the lake and accessing areas won't be a problem. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

RE:Roesiger Crappie Question?
the first two sections are shallower than the far section and I believe they turn on faster. The middle section is only 3-6 ft deep with a good amount of weeds. I haven't targeted crappie there so can't give specifics

RE:Roesiger Crappie Question?
i've only caught crappie in the first section of the lake. i've found that really light tube jigs (1/64oz and down) work best, yellow/white seems to work good. be sure to tip it with a maggot. i would just work the shorline casting and swimming the jigs back in.
