Early in the season, water usually takes three days after a cold front before it warms significantly enough to increase crappie and bass activity. Because water warmer than 40 degrees is more buoyant than cooler water, spring warming creates a shallow, warmer layer of water late in the day on the downwind side of a lake. Other factors being the same, the north side will warm more quickly than the south side of the lake. Although air will cool quickly after sunset, water retains its heat for quite some time. Because of the warmer water and better predatory efficiency of crappie and bass during low light conditions, these fish feed more aggressively in the late afternoon and early evening during the spring. Early season crappie fishing begins when daffodil leaves push their way out of the soil. These early season crappie can be caught in shallow water, especially around woody debris and in vegetation over a hard bottom near deeper water. Often some of the year’s best catches occur at this time. For anglers unable to fish during the day, night fishing can be excellent as fish move into a lake’s tributaries.

    Jive Communications Announces Multi-Tiered Motorsports Marketing Program Cloud Communications Provider Teams Up with ARCA Race Winner Lincoln, AL (PRWEB) April 29, 2016 -- Officials from Jive Communications, Inc. announced today that the international communications company has entered into a multi-faceted motorsports marketing program for the 2016 Racing Season. The announcement took place at the Talladega Superspeedway during the ARCA and NASCAR weekend activities. “We are pleased to announce today a partnership with the Athenian Motorsports team and driver John Wes Townley for primary sponsorship of both the NASCAR Xfinity Series and the ARCA Racing Series presented by Menards,” said John Pope, CEO of Jive Communications. “We’re excited and grateful to begin our association with racing with these prominent brands and franchises.” Jive will serve as primary sponsors of the Athenian Motorsports #05 Chevrolets for the NASCAR Xfinity Series events in Talladega on Saturday, April 30, and on July 1 in Daytona. The 12-race ARCA program will debut during today’s General Tire 200 at Talladega. Jive will also serve as an associate sponsor on the No. 05 Chevrolet in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series. “I turned my very first laps in ARCA and NASCAR in 2008, and I can tell you, this is the most excited I’ve been about racing,” said the 26-year-old Townley, a two-time Daytona ARCA race winner and the current ARCA points leader heading into today’s General Tire 200 at Talladega. “Jive is a company based in Utah that is entirely new to the motorsports platform. I feel like Athenian Motorsports and I are well-positioned to bring Jive some spectacular results on a regular basis in both ARCA and NASCAR.

  • Talladega General Tire Superspeedway Challenge
    Talladega General Tire Superspeedway Challenge The General Tire 200 is the second round of the General Tire Superspeedway Challenge, comprised of 7 races held on paved ovals greater than 1.5 miles in length. - A superspeedway championship for the car owners within the overall championship of the ARCA Menards Series 20-race schedule. - Only race points are counted towards a team’s point total, with the bonus points for leading laps or winning the pole disregarded. - Champion crowned at Kansas Speedway on Friday, October 16, 2020 and recognized at annual championship awards banquet. The last time the ARCA Menards Series took to the high banks of a superspeedway, Michael Self drove the Cathy Venturini-owned No. 25 Venturini Motorsports Toyota to a dominating win at Daytona International Speedway in February. Self led 61 of the 80 laps from the pole as he picked up his second win in the prestigious season-opening race, having also won the event in 2018. The win not only bolstered Self’s hopes for a championship run after finishing a narrow second in the standings a year ago, but it also propelled car owner Cathy Venturini and the No. 25 team to the early lead in the General Tire Superspeedway Challenge standings for 2020. After a lengthy layoff of over four months since the last superspeedway race and three months since the last race the series ran at Phoenix Raceway in March, the drivers of the ARCA Menards Series are looking forward to getting back on track for Saturday’s General Tire 200 at Talladega Superspeedway.
