Default A couple big Crappies

I was out a couple evenings ago and caught several Walleyes and two crappies which were 15 inches long and just a tad under three lbs. They were hanging right along a rocky drop off. A thunderstorm came up and run me off or I think I would have got several more. I had an eighthoz jig and minnow combo.

Congratulations. Those sound like some dandy fish. The local shop had one gentleman bring in some crappies close to that size last week. Very impressive.

I tried again yesterday but the Jet ski's were going crazy. Scared every fish in the lake into the channel. Here it to colder weather.
