Occoquan River Crappies - Jan 26

Only because I couldn’t fish last Saturday due to the freezing rain,  on Thursday I hit Occoquan River for Crappies after work.
The low tide was 3:50PM.  There would be plenty of clearance (3-4’) under the most of docks I thought. I arrived at Occoquan Regional Park at 2:15pm.
It was warm day. Air temp was 48-50F and there was no wind.  The water temp was whopping 50F at the shore, and 45F in the middle of the river. 
I cast under the docks with two different lures, a 1.5-2” red/white tube and a 3” brown curly tail, both on 1/16oz jig heads.  I caught 5-6 crappies on the brown curly tail but none on the red/white tube

I share everything in fishing.  Yesterday I tried for 30 minutes after Crappie fishing for YP in the deep water (25-30') I don't think YP is in the deep yet due to the warm water temp.  I haven't fished often enough give you the answer. Sorry about that.
