Black or white crappie?  I seem to get more black crappie that are larger around here.

I needed a little rejuvenation this morning, so took by kayak out to Burke Lake for a 3 hours.  Great sunrise, and no wind at all.  Caught 20+ crappies at the east end of the dam, big shallow bay there.  5wt mostly with floating line and a couple of shiny shad flies.  One was at least 2lbs, maybe 3, dwarfed the others.  No bass (surprising), couple of bluegills and a very small perch.  Water quality was really clear.  No sign of any bass in other spots, threw a heavier and bigger fly on a sinking line, but no go.  Fishing only entrance south of main entrance is a great place with a small ramp, and you can flyfish the dam easily without a boat, though you need to watch for runners/walkers.
