Thread: What is your Biggest Crappie (Length)?

One day about 3 years back we had 4 that touched or broke the 17 inch line. And one was close to the line.

I've had a few 18's. My heaviest one so far is 3.20. It was 17 inches long with a 17 inch girth

9.75" @ Smithville. It was a hoss!!

9.75 but I had to borrow it from Joe.............. No really 11 in.

Same here but only caught two not three like Dave. He seen one of them but will not admit it.

We both have fished with Joedog so put him down for 8" not 9.75"

I realize crappie can vary in weight depending upon food, season (spawn) and where caught. Length to me indicates age and growing conditions.( not sure). (

Check out YouTube and search Uncut Angling Crappie.
There are some toads that come out of Ontario. Those have to be old, old, fish.

17.5 farm pond by my house

I've caught 3 161/2 inchers but can't get a 17 yet, but my grandson caught a nice 17 inch black.
