Planning to go crappie fishing this weekend @ Jordan Lake, was wondering how the fishing was.

You should find some at the hwy 64 bridge.

Right now most are fishing for them in the backs of the creeks.

What are they catching them with back there? I can go out and catch 1 or 2 but I can never pull in more than that. I was using a beetle spin...

If you can catch one or two you can catch twenty. Pay attention to what kind of environment you are pulling them out of (depth,location,structure).
Try to find a trend. Jigs or minnows under floats work well. My favorite method is finding brush piles they are occupying and vertical jigging or dropping a minnow down from a slip bobber just above their position.

This time of year crappie specific crankbaits (small to medium sized, highly visible) work well too and will usually catch the bigger of the lot.
